Season high shots in clean sheet
Bassey recorded three shots (zero on goal) in Saturday's 0-0 draw against Brentford.
Analysis: Bassey posed a threat going forward, particularly from set pieces, where he registered a season-high three shots, though he was unable to build on his solitary league goal of the campaign. At the back, the center-half delivered a quieter display in the clean sheet, finishing with just one tackle and one clearance. He has now amassed 10 clearances and 14 tackles across his last five starts, recording at least one tackle in each outing while also contributing to two clean sheets.
Fit to face Liverpool
Bassey (back) is fit to face Liverpool on Saturday, according to manager Marco Silva.
Analysis: Bassey suffered a back injury while on international duty with Nigeria, but Silva confirmed the center-back will be available to face the Reds this weekend. Bassey has been a regular presence at the back for Fulham this season with 21 starts out of 23 EPL appearances, and if he's fit, he should return to the starting XI right away.
