Zamora to head Fulham bid
December 14, 2011 16:43:21 UK
Bobby Zamora is set to lead the Fulham attack in the crunch Europa League clash with Odense, with the Cottagers needing a win to ensure progress in the competition.
Zamora was left out of the Fulham side which lost 2-0 at Swansea City last weekend, but is certain to be recalled for the match at Craven Cottage with Andy Johnson suspended and Bryan Ruiz ineligible.
I will play different players because I think I need to, but we still have a strong team.
Martin Jol
Fulham currently lie second in Group K behind FC Twente, but Wisla Krakow are just a point behind in third and are highly fancied to see off Twente in their final group game.
Midfielder Steve Sidwell misses out as he recovers from hernia surgery and goalkeeper Mark Schwarzer is sidelined by a back problem, but Danny Murphy has shrugged off an ankle knock and is included in Martin Jol's squad.
Jol admits that he will not name a full-strength side, but expects his men to give their all in pursuit of a positive outcome - with Fulham 1.20 to win the game, 7.00 to triumph by a 1-0 scoreline and 12122.00 to go on and win the competition.
Dutchman Jol said: "I will play different players because I think I need to, but we still have a strong team.
"I realise we need to win this game because of the Wisla Krakow away game where we lost 1-0. It made it difficult for ourselves and we have to win.
"I know Twente will play almost a reserve side, so I think Wisla have a great chance to win that game, so we have to do everything to win."
