Game Report

Highlights

Aleksandar Mitrovic was once again the Fulham hero as he scored twice to help his side to a fourth consecutive win. Mitrovic now has 15 league goals for the season after he netted twice in the first half to keep the Cottagers 3rd. George Byers pulled one back but the Swans have now failed to win in four games.

Detail

There were changes for Swansea with Sam Surridge starting up-front while Mike van der Hoorn was fit to play in defence. Josh Onomah came into the Fulham side for a rare appearance.

Swansea were the better side early on with Sam Surridge denied by Marek Rodak before Byers hit the post.

However Fulham were clinical when it mattered and it was Mitrovic who continued his excellent season. First he headed in after Abou Kamara had hit the bar. Mitrovic then made it two as he produced another quality finish after Kristoffer Petersen had given the ball away.

Byers was the real stand out for Swansea and he deserved his goal, and also looked the likeliest to find an equaliser as Fulham held on well.

Summary

A great win for Fulham who have hit a real purple patch. They will be delighted with the continued good form of Mitrovic. Swansea have lost their way. Byers apart this was not a good display.
