Fulham vs AFC Bournemouth
Fulham can't find a way through Bournemouth. The home side had a great spell of possession but it was all in front of the away side and eventually, Bassey passed the ball out of play. It was pretty easy for Bournemouth.

Fulham appear to be doing better now, with the hosts enjoying more of the possession.

Leno makes a big save! Semenyo gets in behind but his shot is met by the German, who makes himself big and saves Fulham. The defence was caught sleeping.

Bournemouth just took their fifth corner of the match. They have been a team that have found a lot of joy from set pieces through creative ways but for now, Fulham have the reading of them.

Billing is causing problems again. The big Dane is wrestling with Castagne who instinctively hits it out of play while under pressure. He did a good job while also getting hugged.

Billing is let down by his touch. He gets in the box and has a ball drilled into him, but he struggles to control it. The chance goes astray.

Bournemouth have had so much of the ball so far that I think Huijsen just got complacent. The Spaniard, with all the time in the world, clips the ball out of play.

Brooks goes close! He surges into the box, before cutting inside of Jimenez and just bending his shot over Leno's bar. It looked like Leno was wrong-footed.

Fulham's defence is staying strong for now. Castagne had to clear a Hill cross but they look like they are enjoying the challenge that Bournemouth are giving them.
