Craven Cottage: Home of Fulham(credit:

Striker Bobby Zamora is doubtful for Fulham’s Premier League clash with Blackburn Rovers on Saturday. (kick-off 15.00 GMT)
Zamora recently returned from a broken leg but an ankle problem, which kept him out last week, means he could be missing for Mark Hughes’ side at Craven Cottage.
Other than that, Hughes has no new injuries to contend with as Philippe Senderos, Diomansy Kamara (both back) and Steve Sidwell (knee) remain sidelined.
Blackburn Rovers defender Ryan Nelsen is suspended following his red card last week and Chris Samba should take his place having overcome illness.
Both Roque Santa Cruz (back) and David Hoilett (hamstring) are doubtful, but Rovers boss Steve Kean could hand a debut to Ruben Rochina.
However, Kean will be without midfielder David Dunn due to a hip injury.
