When can Fulham be promoted to the Premier League?


After a couple of near-misses over the past 10 days, Fulham finally clinched promotion from the Sky Bet Championship to the Premier League with a comfortable win over Preston.

Marco Silva's men succumbed to defeats against both Coventry and Derby to put the promotion party on hold slightly, but a 3-0 victory over Preston ensured a return to the top flight of English football.

It was the Cottagers' top scorer Aleksandar Mitrovic who again played a vital part, grabbing two of the three goals to take his tally to 40 in the league this season.

Having already broken the record for the most goals in a Championship season, Mitrovic is taking his goalscoring to new heights, and still has four games left to play.
