Fulham Fulham defender Moritz Volz will miss the Barclays Premiership clash with Manchester United through suspension.
The German full-back must serve a one-match ban after accumulating five yellow cards while Luis Boa Morte and Claus Jensen both miss out with hamstring injuries.
Goalkeeper Mark Crossley (back) has yet to make a full recovery but Sylvain Legwinski and Alain Goma are looking promising for Monday night following spells in the treatment room.
Injury news (latest from Fulham FC Medical Room) Lee Clark is continuing his recovery from calf problems. He is undertaking partial training including working with the ball but will need a number of reserve games before he is available for selection. Jerome Bonnissel is also recovering from his injury and is also back in partial training.
Mark Crossley has been recovering well from his groin strain. He is now running comfortably and should be back in training by the middle of next week. Claus Jensen is approaching a return to full training having made a good recovery from a substantial hamstring tear. It is unlikely that he will be ready in time to be involved in the Man Utd game. Luis Boa Morte, who has been suffering from a hamstring strain, will be back in full training next week.
Man Utd Sir Alex Ferguson will take a late check on top scorer Ruud van Nistelrooy before deciding whether to pitch the 12-goal striker into Monday's Barclays Premiership clash with Fulham.
The prolific Dutchman has missed the last two games after finally falling victim to a problematic injury just below the calf, but he was due to return to training on Friday and could play as United look to record a fifth successive league win.
Wes Brown (Achilles) is definitely out after limping out of Wednesday night's Champions League defeat to Fenerbahce, joining Kleberson (ankle) and Louis Saha (knee) on the sidelines.
