Fulham's fitness situation has not changed in the course of a week, and Arbeloa will only be missing Luc De Fougerolles and Tom Cairney, both rehabilitating from knee injuries.
Manuel Angel, David Affengruber and Hugo Larsson were all part of a Fulham matchday squad for the first time against Crystal Palace, although only the latter made it onto the field for a brief second-half cameo.
Having been largely pleased with the application of his players in the derby, Arbeloa should stick rather than twist, although Sander Berge could displace Oscar Bobb if Arbeloa feels a greater defensive presence is required.
Fulham possible starting lineup:
Leno; Castagne, Andersen, Bassey, Robinson; Berge, Charles; Iwobi, King, Palacios; Garcia

Liverpool lost both Bradley Barcola and Milos Kerkez before full time in Wednesday's win over Atletico, but Iraola affirmed that the pair were only cramping up rather than suffering from anything sinister.
However, Cody Gakpo is more of a doubt due to the adductor problem that kept him out of the midweek victory, while Conor Bradley (knee), Giovanni Leoni (knee), Hugo Ekitike (Achilles), Joe Gomez (muscle) and Federico Chiesa (back) are all sidelined.
Victor Munoz is primed and ready if neither Gakpo nor Barcola are deemed fit enough to play, while a goal for Isak on Saturday would see the Swede surpass his Premier League total for the entire 2025-26 campaign.
Liverpool possible starting lineup:
Alisson; Araujo, Jacquet, Van Dijk, Tsimikas; Mac Allister, Szoboszlai; Munoz, Wirtz, Ngumoha; Isak
