FA Cup MDT - 5th Round v Fulham

This Tuesday sees the Mighty Whites under new management continue their FA Cup adventure down at the Cottage.

We're live on the BBC KO 7:45pm

This game could be a mixed blessing - on the one hand it's a rubbish cup draw, having to travel away to a team ahead of us in the PL but not a glamour tie. On the other hand it's a free hit for Gracia to see the team against PL opposition without relegation worries.

Fulham are clearly having a great season by their standards - in a Europa League spot as things stand, Marco Silva is turning into a top appointment for them, gelling an unheralded group into this season's surprise package.

Fulhams' honours list includes the Intertoto Cup in 2002. And.... err, that's it.

Here's your STAT OF THE DAY - the tables below refer to managing Watford.....Silva got the boot to be replaced by our Javi...... and it's food for thought.

In the mean time lets press on with the important stuff:

Weather

Smog again, faint sewage EDIT: breeze from the Thames

Predicted Line-up

I'd love to see us go again with a first team line-up and bed in the new tactics, but at the same time with a relegation 6 pointer at Chelsea on Saturday he's better off rotating and seeing others play.

Meslier

Rasmus Monteiro Cooper Pascal

Jimmy Greenwood Roca Willy

Rutter Joseph

We're going to play a much more measured defensive game, waste time and get out of the Capital with a draw EDIT, TC10 is right (for once!!) it has to be decided on Tuesday, no replays, so I'll go for pens too.

Fulham 1-1 Leeds (Rutter to open his account)

Pie Chart

All yours folks.
