Game: Fulham v Birmingham

Venue: Craven Cottage

Date: Saturday, 3 May

Kick-off: 1500 BST



Fulham is in a very good moment at this time. They won 2 matches in the last 3 meetings.

On the last weekend they won by 2-3 at Manchester City's home on an amazing match.

For this match Fulham boss Roy Hodgson has an almost fully-fit squad to draw on for their crucial clash at Craven Cottage.

Striker Jari Litmanen has recovered from a head injury he sustained in training but is short of match fitness.

Birmingham on is side, is playing well only at home, but on the last 8 matches the team won only by one time.

For this match Birmingham will give late fitness tests to Stephen Kelly (knee) and Mehdi Nafti (thigh) before finalising the team for the crucial relegation six-pointer.

Club captain Damien Johnson is available to return in midfield after completing the three-match suspension.

Fulham knows this match is probably the most important of all season.

They came from good results and a victory at home should change the course of the league. Reading will face also a tigh test against Tottenham and things could end perfectly.

3 points needed and Fulham is clearly playing better then Birmingham at this moment.

I expect a tight match, but a victory from Fulham!
