Fulham FC overview and club history
Fulham Football Club was founded in 1879 and is based in west London. Known as the Cottagers, the club has played at Craven Cottage on the banks of the Thames since 1896. Its long history includes periods in the top flight, promotions and memorable cup runs.
Fulham compete in the Premier League and host visiting clubs at one of English football’s best-known grounds. Chelsea are their west London neighbours, while meetings with other established Premier League sides remain important fixtures in the calendar. For the wider competition picture, see our Premier League 2026/27 season guide.
Fulham fixtures and 2026/27 results
Fulham’s Premier League fixtures include home matches at Craven Cottage and away trips around England. Dates and kick-off times can change when broadcasters and cup competitions affect the calendar. Check our Premier League fixtures guide for the latest listed schedule rather than treating this club article as a live fixture feed.
Fulham lost 1–0 at Sunderland on 30 August and 3–2 at home to Crystal Palace on 5 September. They then earned a 0–0 draw away to Liverpool on 12 September, taking a point at Anfield after those defeats. These are confirmed early-season results as of 18 September 2026, not an automatically updated form table.

Fulham squad and key players for 2026/27
Fulham’s 2026/27 registered squad includes Bernd Leno, Joachim Andersen, Calvin Bassey, Antonee Robinson, Alex Iwobi and Rodrigo Muniz. Tom Cairney and Sander Berge also provide midfield experience, while Oscar Bobb offers options in attack. The exact matchday squad can change with selection and player availability.
Hugo Larsson joined from Eintracht Frankfurt in September 2026, giving Fulham another central-midfield option. Bobb had arrived from Manchester City earlier in the year, adding a player who can operate across the forward line. Those confirmed additions provide more useful squad context than general claims about unverified summer transfer plans.
Fulham manager and playing approach
Álvaro Arbeloa was appointed Fulham head coach in July 2026. He arrived after coaching in Real Madrid’s youth system and with Castilla, bringing a new direction to the first team. His selections and approach will become clearer as the season progresses, so this page does not claim an unverified fixed formation.
Fulham’s performance will depend on how well the squad combines defensive organisation with chances created by its midfielders and forwards. The goalless draw at Liverpool showed the team could earn a result away from home after a difficult opening run. Further tactical conclusions should be based on confirmed matches rather than predictions about what Fulham will do next.
Premier League outlook and how to follow Fulham
Fulham will face established Premier League clubs as well as teams returning from the Championship during the 2026/27 season. League position, goal difference and points change after each round, so a permanent club page should not present an undated standings snapshot as current. Fulham’s next opponents and confirmed results are better followed through the fixtures and live-data pages.
