Rufus Brevett will be missing for the first time in more than two months in the league when Fulham take on West Brom at Loftus Road.
The left-back is suspended after amassing five cautions so Pierre Wome could drop back into defence.
Forward quartet Louis Saha (hamstring), Barry Hayles (neck), Luis Boa Morte (thigh) and Andrejs Stolcers (leg) are all still out.
Goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar, who has broken the fourth metatarsal bone in his right foot, is sidelined until late January at the earliest.
Midfield pair Junichi Inamoto (ankle) and Lee Clark (calf) are ruled out for three more weeks.

West Brom
West Brom Boss Gary Megson has been forced to draft Des Lyttle and teenager Tamika Mkandawire into his depleted 18-man squad for the New Year's Day trip to Fulham at Loftus Road.
Albion have been rocked by further injuries to record signing Lee Hughes (knee) and wing-back Igor Balis (throat), who have both been ruled unfit to travel overnight to London.
Lyttle signed a new one-year deal in the summer but has so far made only one start in the current campaign .The former Forestfull-back has yet to make Megson’s Premiership 16 while 19-year-old centre-half Mkandawire has failed to make an appearance of any kind at senior level.
Megson said: "We are down to our last 18 players but I am one of those fortunate managers who knows what I am going to get from my players.“I know they will not be lacking in commitment, endeavour and work-rate and everyone will give their all against Fulham."

Albion have suffered a catalogue of recent injury problems, with club captain Derek McInnes and Jordao (both dislocated shoulders) also being sidelined over the festive period.
Derek McInnes' dislocated shoulder has come at a crucial stage of the campaign. The Scot will be joined on the sidelines by Phil Gilchrist, who has still not recovered from ankle trouble.
