This afternoon, Fulham are able to take a break from the pressure of trying to escape from the relegation zone, in the Premier League, when the FA Cup 3rd round takes centre stage.
With victories being a rarity, for Fulham, in the Premier League, the Cottagers have been given the perfect opportunity to get a morale-boosting one this afternoon.
The draw was particularly kind to Fulham when they were given a home tie against the League Two side, Oldham Athletic.
Oldham sit in 10th place in League Two and have recently sacked their boss, Frank Bunn.
Although Claudio Ranieri has inferred he will, as most managers do, heavily rotate his starting eleven for this tie, Fulham should still have too much about them to prevent a huge FA Cup upset happening.
With the kick-off fast approaching, we are now able to bring you the team-sheets to mull over.
