Fulham
Fulham goalkeeper Mark Crossley will keep his place in the starting line-up following a superb display against Birmingham in midweek.

Dutch stopper Edwin van der Sar - usually the Cottagers' first choice between the sticks - is out with a back problem but boss Chris Coleman revealed he would have been on the bench even if fit. Ross Flitney acts as back-up to Crossley.

Claus Jensen is out once again after tweaking his hamstring against Birmingham but there is better news for Tomasz Radzinski who has been given the all-clear following his hamstring injury.

Ian Pearce (knee), Sylvain Legwinski (ankle), Lee Clark (calf), Alain Goma (calf) and Jerome Bonnissel (groin) are in the treatment room and unavailable for selection.

Tottenham
Despite the suspension of Jamie Redknapp against Fulham, Santini is expected to once again prefer Sean Davis to Carrick in midfield.

Davis was a regular as Tottenham made an impressive start to the season before he suffered a knee injury. Without him in the starting line-up, Spurs managed just one win in six Barclays Premiership games.

Santini is missing Timothee Atouba, Erik Edman and Anthony Gardner through injury.

Mauricio Tarricco is available for selection after suspension.
