Fulham moved to the top of the Championship after Aleksandar Mitrovic’s 21st goal of the season ensured Marco Silva’s side carried on where left off before the international break to register a seventh successive win.

Mitrovic’s header and a fine individual effort from Fabio Carvalho gave the Cottagers a two-goal half-time lead they were never going to squander against struggling Barnsley.

Neeskens Kebano added a 72nd minute third and when Victor Adeboyejo got one back for the visitors, Harry Wilson wrapped up the one-sided victory that meant Silva’s men took full advantage of the opportunity to leap-frog Bournemouth ahead of the Cherries visit to Derby on Sunday.
