A first-half brace from Dimitar Berbatov sent Fulham on their way to a comfortable win over 10-man West Bromwich Albion at Craven Cottage.
The 31-year-old Bulgarian, who was making his full debut for the hosts, opened the scoring on 32 minutes with a finessed finish from 15 yards.
Peter Odemwingie was shown a straight red card six minutes later for stupidly kicking out at Sascha Riether.
Berbatov then doubled the Cottagers' lead from the penalty spot in first-half stoppage time.
Steve Sidwell put the result beyond any doubt when he headed home from very close range on 89 minutes.
