The West Londoners have taken maximum points from just three of their 26 league matches so far this season.

DANGER MAN: Ex-Manchester United striker Erik Nevland has been brought into the club to try and provide goals.

The 30-year Norway star was bought for £1.85 million from FC Groningen last month to bolster the flagging Cottager's front line<.

FUN FACT: Fulham full back Moritz Volz once revealed that he wore football boots with "HOFF 2" sewn into them in honour of burger-munching cult 80s Knight Rider hero David Hasselhoff.

The 24-year-old wore the boots for good luck in a Premiership match with Aston Villa in 2006 - and promptly ended a goal drought spanning three years with his first strike for the club.

PREDICTION: Fulham 1 West Ham 1
