It’s almost time for Christmas, which means it’s almost time for the day after Christmas, which means it’s almost time for Boxing Day, which means it’s almost time for Boxing Day football! Rejoice!
This year, we get a nice friendly local derby as Fulham make the short trek up the road to the Bridge. However, this year’s iteration of Fulham do carry a decent amount of threat, having lost just four league games all season, and just one in their last nine. (They have as many draws as Everton, seven, which is what’s consigning them to midtable at the moment.)
All that to say, we can’t take this game as lightly as we do our normal midweek affairs. This is a proper contest, so we’ll need a proper lineup.
I surmise the injury situation remains unchanged from the weekend, though we do get Marc Cucurella back from suspension.
Choose wisely.
