Fulham have won each of their last three meetings with Leeds United, seeking a fourth successive victory in this fixture for the first time ever. The Yorkshire-based club have won only two of their 13 visits to Craven Cottage in the last 40 years.
Fulham vs Leeds preview
Can Fulham claim their first win of the season? Fulham supporters are not famed for being the most vocal of ferocious in the Premier League, but they certainly feel as though their side have not got the rub of the green so far. Last time out, the Whites were beaten 2-0 by West London rivals Chelsea at Stamford Bridge, but that doesn't begin to tell half the story. 18 year old Josh King thought he had broken the deadlock, but the goal was ruled out for an alleged foul by Rodrigo Muniz, one that PGMOL later admitted was wrong. That doesn't help Fulham much though, especially given that Chelsea broke the deadlock in the injury time caused by the VAR delay, before rubber stamping the points thanks to a very dubious penalty shortly after the interval.
So, Marco Silva's side are still yet to win this season, previously held to 1-1 draws by both Brighton and Manchester United, annoyed about refereeing decisions during both of these matches too. Now though, with a West London derby against Brentford to come next Saturday night, the Cottagers will be targeting back-to-back victories to spark their season into life.
As for Leeds United, they have four points to their name after three Premier League games, which represents a solid return. Lukas Nmecha's late penalty saw them defeat Everton at Elland Road on the opening Monday night of the campaign, yet to score a goal since then though.
Daniel Farke's side then suffered a serious reality check, demolished 5-0 at Arsenal, before playing out a goalless draw with Newcastle at home which could only be described as incredibly dull. As a newly-promoted club, it is all about keeping their heads above water for Leeds this season, making every point valuable, so will they leave Craven Cottage with one or even all three on Saturday?

Fulham team news
18 year old Josh King has been excellent so far this season, robbed of a first-ever senior goal at Stamford Bridge, so will once again start here, chosen over Emile Smith Rowe and others.
In defence, Antonee Robinson did not go away with the United States this week, slowly easing back in following knee surgery in May, so will Ryan Sessegnon once again deputise at left-back?
Lastly, wingers Samuel Chukwueze and Kevin both signed on deadline day, Fulham hadn't recruited a single outfielder beforehand, so will either or perhaps both debut in this one?
Fulham predicted lineup vs Leeds United: (4-3-3): Leno; Tete, Andersen, Bassey, Sessegnon; Berge, Lukić, Chukwueze, King, Iwobi; Muniz.
Fulham player to watch vs Leeds
Both Rodrigo Muniz and Raúl Jiménez have scored one goal apiece this season, making it tough to know who Marco Silva's first-choice is. Given that the latter was away with Mexico, starting and scoring for el Tri against Korea Republic in the early hours of Wednesday morning, Muniz could start this one, having almost joined Leeds this summer.
Leeds team news
Captain Ethan Ampadu is still sidelined due to a medial collateral ligament suffered on the opening weekend, so Ilia Gruev and Sean Longstaff will continue alongside Anton Stach in midfield.
Further forward, Noah Okafor is awaiting his first Premier League start, having arrived from AC Milan, while Lukas Nmecha led the line against Newcastle, but either last season's top-scorer Joël Piroe or perhaps Dominic Calvert-Lewin could do so here.
Leeds United predicted lineup vs Fulham: (4-3-3): Perri; Bogle, Struijk, Rodon, Gudmundsson; Gruev, Longstaff, Stach; Okafor, Gnonto, Calvert-Lewin
Leeds player to watch vs Fulham
Dominic Calvert-Lewin has only ever scored twice in eight meetings with Fulham, bagging a brace at Craven Cottage during lockdown, so could he open his Leeds account on the banks of the River Thames?

We are forecasting a Fulham victory, likely to make home advantage count at Craven Cottage, against a Leeds team still acclimatising to life back in the Premier League: Fulham 2-1 Leeds United.
