Brentford vs Fulham preview - Douglas boost for Brentford



Posted Thursday, November 20, 2014 by PA

Jonathan Douglas will be back in the Brentford squad for the visit of west London neighbours Fulham.

Midfielder Douglas was an ever-present for the Bees this season until he was ruled out of the 3-2 win at Millwall last time out through suspension, so he is set to come straight back into the starting line-up.

Boss Mark Warburton has an almost fully-fit squad aside from long-term absentees Alan McCormack (ankle) and Scott Hogan (cruciate).

The Bees have won their last three matches and could move joint second with a victory over their derby rivals.

Fulham are also in decent form, on a six-match unbeaten run in the league under new manager Kit Symons.

Goalkeeper Marcus Bettinelli this week withdrew from the England Under-21 squad with a thumb injury so Gabor Kiraly will be on standby.

Symons will also check on defenders Fernando Amorebieta, who missed the 3-1 win over Huddersfield a fortnight ago with a knee knock, and Tim Hoogland following a pelvic problem.

Striker Adam Taggart is on the mend following a long-term groin issue but is not expected to be available just yet.
