Fulham return to league action after the international break as they welcome Preston North End to Craven Cottage.

Alex Neil's side currently sit in sixth place in the Championship, four places and three points off Slavisa Jokanovic's Fulham having won one game more in the 11 played so far.

It looks set to be an entertaining game, with both teams known for playing a brand of football that is pleasing on the eye, which was seen the last time the two met where Fulham came out as 3-1 victors at the Cottage.

The Whites come into the game on the back of a three-match unbeaten run, which included a 1-1 draw with Middlesbrough at the Cottage before back-to-back away wins with Nottingham Forest and QPR.

We'll have live goal and match updates throughout the afternoon right here as it unfolds.
