Fulham manager Chris Coleman has included striker Vincenzo Montella in his squad for the awkward FA Cup clash with Leicester.

The Italian is set to be named on the bench by Coleman, as he is still short on match-fitness following his loan move from Roma.

Coleman is without goalkeeper Antti Niemi (neck), but Tony Warner should deputise after returning from a loan spell with Leeds.

Fulham are definitely without Papa Bouba Diop (thigh), Claus Jensen (calf), Zat Knight (broken jaw) and Jimmy Bullard (knee), while Ian Pearce (back) is rated 50-50. Boa Morte has left for West Ham.

Fulham (from):
Warner, Rosenior, Christanval, Bocanegra, Routledge, Volz, Brown, Radzinski, McBride, Montella, John, Helguson, Runstrom, Zakuani, Omozusi, Lastuvka.
