Follow live coverage as Fulham face Bournemouth in the Premier League today.

Aleksandar Mitrovic returned to the Fulham line-up for the visit of Bournemouth in the Premier League. The Serbia striker has been recovering from an injury sustained during the recent international break and missed his side’s 3-1 defeat at West Ham, but has been included in the starting XI.

Bournemouth caretaker manager Gary O’Neil made no changes to his Cherries starting line-up from their 2-1 win against Leicester.

Fulham: Leno, Reid, Diop, Ream, Antonee Robinson, Reed, Joao Palhinha, James, Andreas Pereira, Kebano, Mitrovic

Bournemouth: Neto, Fredericks, Mepham, Senesi, Smith, Christie, Cook, Lerma, Tavernier, Billing, Solanke

We will bring you all the action and updates from today's game in the live blog below:

Smith is put under pressure by Willian and he plays a risky backpass to Neto, not realising that Mitrovic is closing him down. The keeper stays calm though and hooks it away just in time.

O'Neil will be pleased with his side's performance so far; even though Bournemouth let Fulham back into the game, they reacted well to being penned back and finished the half strongly. Fulham also responded well after the early goal, and Silva will be looking for a similar reaction again at the start of the second half.

Bournemouth take a 2-1 lead over Fulham into half-time. It took just 65 seconds for Solanke to break the deadlock, finishing off a one-two with Billing to volley a fine effort past Leno. Fulham reacted well though and Diop glanced in an equaliser from a corner, with Neto unable to keep it out. Seven minutes later, Bournemouth led again though, with Lerma rifling in a low effort and Leno also made a brilliant double save to keep out Lerma and Smith.
