Fulham will welcome local rivals West Ham United to Craven Cottage in a friendly game on Saturday.
Fulham are playing their first game since their 2-1 defeat against Manchester United in November. They will resume their Premier League campaign next week with a game against Crystal Palace on 26 December.
West Ham United played a couple of friendlies in the international break before this clash, defeating Cambridge United 4-2 earlier this month and overcoming Udinese 3-1 last Saturday.
Goals from Saïd Benrahma, Manuel Lanzini, and Michail Antonio helped them defeat the Serie A team. Saïd Benrahma was also on the scoresheet in the 4-2 win over Cambridge and will be looking to continue that form here.

Fulham vs West Ham United Prediction
The Cottagers have won just one of their last five games at home and might struggle here. They have not been able to defeat West Ham in their last five meetings and will need to produce a solid performance in this match.
West Ham scored six goals in their two friendly games last week and are likely to capitalize on Fulham's lack of game time this month to secure a comfortable win.
