Fulham to take on Melbourne Victory at Etihad Stadium

English Premier League club Fulham will take on A-League champions Melbourne Victory in July.

The match will be held at Etihad Stadium on Saturday night, July 11.

"Melbourne Victory is delighted to welcome English Premier League club Fulham and Qantas Socceroos goalkeeper Mark Schwarzer to Etihad Stadium for another fantastic international club friendly," said Victory chairman Geoff Lord.

"Following the success of the Juventus game last year, we're committed to bringing more of the world's biggest clubs to Melbourne and Fulham will undoubtedly provide an entertaining spectacle.

"These games show the global nature of our sport, and give the people of Melbourne and Australia a real taste of it.

"We look forward to all Melbourne Victory members and fans, and sporting fans as a whole, getting along to see a world class outfit in Fulham take on Melbourne Victory."
