Fulham to rest Zamora

Fulham look set to rest Bobby Zamora for tomorrow’s Europa League Group K opener against FC Twente.

Fellow forward Bryan Ruiz is cup tied against his former club having played for them during Champions League qualifying, although he will be available should the Cottagers reach the knockout phase.

Aaron Hughes is out after going off injured in Sunday’s Barclays Premier League clash with Blackburn and is also doubtful for Manchester City this weekend, while Philippe Senderos is ill and Dickson Etuhu is struggling with a thigh injury.

Provisional squad: Schwarzer, Somogyi, Baird, Hangeland, Kelly, Grygera, JA Riise, BH Riise, Duff, Sidwell, Dembele, Dempsey, Etuhu, Gecov, Murphy, Sa, Zamora, Johnson.
