Fulham V QPR - view commentary, squad, and data of the overall game live. Ruiz and Enoh face exercise checks Fulham boss Martin Jol can give striker Bryan Ruiz (hamstring) and midfielder Eyong Enoh conditioning checks before naming his team for Monday's London derby against QPR. Ruiz is struggling with an accident he acquired playing for Costa Rica in midweek. Meanwhile, midfielder Mahamadou Diarra, who's out of agreement at the conclusion of the growing season, won't play again before then after it had been found his difficult left knee will demand a third operation. Jol thinks Fulham, on 36 items, require two wins to make sure survival and wants a fierce scrap with QPR, who rest second bottom and are fighting for their Premier League lives. Jol said: "This is a home game, a derby game, they're anxious for three things and we can use them as well." The Fulham manager thinks the shape of goalkeeper Mark Schwarzer might prove vital and asserts they can keep going for at the very least yet another 2 yrs in the Barclays Premier League. Schwarzer, 40, has been instrumental in Fulham securing a mid-table berth with nine suits remaining this season and Jol sees no reason he can not continue to perform a first-rate work at Craven Cottage. The form of the Australian veteran, who is set to go to Rio de Janeiro for the World Cup together with his country next year, is the reason David Stockdale is on loan at npower Championship side Hull and Jol allows that he might have to let the 27-year-old go permanently. "David really wants to be a amount one," said Jol, whose side undertake relegation-threatened QPR tomorrow night in a west London derby which has large significance, particularly, for Harry Redknapp's side. "I am always looking for a good goalkeeper. I have got another good goalkeeper that's 23, Neil Etheridge, and he is very gifted but he must play. "So perhaps we will place him on loan. Stockdale is already on loan; and so I have trouble. We are in need of one or two goalkeepers. Hopefully we are able to get competition for places since that is the ideal." QPR boss Harry Redknapp has Bobby Zamora match. Zamora, the former Fulham striker, used the global break to over come a dose of the virus and an ankle injury to be in competition for the west London derby. Redknapp reported a bill of health following the international window and he must decide whether to recall the mercurial Moroccan Adel Taarabt aside. Redknapp demands the defeat at Aston Villa last time out has not broken his opinion that the membership can climb to success, and says his side's performance in the 3-2 loss gave him additional confidence. Redknapp said: "Obviously ourselves and Reading are in a hard situation but there are seven or eight different groups associated with it. "I still feel nothing has changed my belief and we could get free from it. We played so well at Villa we might came in at half-time three to four up. "We have to obtain the results we need and continue just a little run now. "If we were in bad form we'd be more worried. So it gives an opportunity to us we are playing well, we're in an excellent form. "At least we are going into the last nine games understanding we are playing well. I'd become more worried when we were starting it playing very poorly. I still think you can find four to five benefits left in us."
