Fulham have awarded goalkeeper Marcus Bettinelli a four-year contract - and recalled him to their starting line-up in the Championship.

Bettinelli faces Albion at Craven Cottage as one of two changes to the Fulham side which drew 1-1 at Cardiff in the league last Saturday.

They were denied victory by a brilliant strike from former Seagulls winger Craig Noone.

Bettinelli missed that game due to concerns that a hip problem would affect his kicking.

But he played at Wycombe in the Capital One Cup on Tuesday, as did Nikolay Bodurov, who starts in central defence today ahead of Dan Burn as the other change.

Fulham: Bettinelli; Richards, Bodurov, Hutchinson, Voser; Cairney, O'Hara, Christensen, Pringle; McCormack, Smith. Subs: Lonergan, Burn, Mattila, Tunnicliffe, Woodrow, Dembele, Kacaniklic.
