Fulham are ready to welcome Derby County to Craven Cottage on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Cottagers are clearly on top, having won 14 and lost only 5 of the 27 games.
The previous match played between the two at Craven Cottage was within the last three years, in February 2005, when they eased past their opponents in a high-scoring 4-2 thriller, in an F.A. Cup match.
