Manager
Álvaro Arbeloa
In charge since July 2026
A disciplined, defensively-minded 4-2-3-1 that drops into a 4-5-1 without the ball, built on tactical rigidity and low-risk distribution.
Marco Silva left for Benfica this summer; Arbeloa was hired to keep Fulham comfortably in the division.

Are Fulham FC a safe survivor pick?
Across the last 3 Premier League seasons — 2025/26 (11th), 2024/25 (11th), 2023/24 (14th) — Fulham FC avoided defeat in 59% of their league games. That is the baseline a survivor player should start from before looking at this week's fixture.
This season they have played 3, winning 0, drawing 0 and losing 3, with 4 scored and 7 conceded. At home they are 0-0-2; away from home 0-0-1.
Recent form reads L-L-L (oldest first), meaning they have come through 0% of their last 3 matches without losing.
