Fulham v Brentford team line-ups: Mitrovic only makes bench – but Kebano starts at Wembley
Fulham striker Aleksandar Mitrovic is fit enough to be named on the bench for tonight’s Championship play-off final against Brentford tonight.
The Serbian forward missed both legs of the semi-final victory over Cardiff City with a hamstring injury.
Whites head coach Scott Parker had said in the build-up to the Wembley showpiece that he had a fully-fit squad to choose from.
In-form Neeskens Kebano, who has scored five goals in the last four matches, does start despite coming off at the break in the second leg against the Bluebirds with a hamstring strain.
Denis Odoi is preferred at right-back ahead of Cyrus Christie with Aboubakar Kamara also promoted to the starting line-up in place of Anthony Knockaert.
Fulham: Rodak, Odoi, Hector, Ream, Bryan, Reed, Onomah, Cairney, Kebano, Decordova-Reid, Kamara. Subs: Bettinelli, McDonald, Johansen, Mitrovic, Cavaleiro, Le Marchand, Christie, Knockaert, Sessegnon.
Brentford: Raya, Henry, Pinnock, Norgaard, Jensen, Benrahma, Watkins, Dasilva, Jansson, Mbeumo, Dalsgaard. Subs: Canos, Marcondes, Daniels, Valencia, Dervisoglu, Jeanvier, Fosu, Zamburek, Roerslev.
