Fulham midfielder/defender Martin Djetou will have a late fitness test to decide whether he will feature in the starting line-up at Turf Moor.

Djetou has bruising to the roots of some of his teeth. He has been reviewed by a dental specialist and x-rays have shown that there are no particular fractures in the area. He should be able to play and we will provide him with some kind of mouth protection.

Steve Marlet has a suspected grade one irritation to the right medial ligament of his knee. We will get a scan to confirm, but he will be unavailable to play. Until we receive the results we cannot accurately say how long he will be out of action for.

With Dutch goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar ruled out for another month with a broken foot, Maik Taylor should regain his place in goal from substitute Martin Herrera despite the Northern Ireland keeper's dismissal against Spurs.

Skipper Andy Melville could return after a one-match ban and Sylvain Legwinski, Luis Boa Morte, Sean Davis and Jon Harley have all fully recovered from spells on the sidelines.

But the Cottagers' still have defensive worries as Alain Goma is missing with hamstring trouble.

Burnley welcome back Glen Little and Brad Maylett for the FA Cup fifth-round replay with Fulham.

Little is pushing for a starting berth after recovering from an abductor strain, while Maylett comes into the reckoning following Achilles trouble.

Drissa Diallo and Graham Branch have shaken off respective side and ankle problems sustained in Saturday's win over Derby.

Steve Davis is the only absentee, having been out of action since December with a knee injury.
