Ground: Craven Cottage.

Nickname: Cottagers.

Manager: Jean Tigana.

Top scorer: Louis Saha 24.

Last six results: Gillingham 0, Fulham 2; Burnley 2, Fulham 1; Fulham 1, Forest 0; Barnsley 0, Fulham 0; Fulham 1, Sheffield Utd 1; QPR 0, Fulham 2.

Last time out: Gillingham 0, Fulham 2.

How they lined up: Taylor; Finnan, Brevett, Melville, Symons, Clark, Collins, Davies, Goldbaek, Saha, Hayles. Subs: Hahremann, Moller, Riedle, Neilsen, Boa Morte.

Current form: Three wins in their last seven games is hardly Championship form but the Cottagers have such a lead that they can afford the odd slip-up and still win the title by a distance.

Danger men: The Fulham strikeforce is prolific - Louis Saha (24 goals), Barry Hayles (17) and Luis Boa Morte (17) - and whichever duo Tigana turns out will need some stopping.
