Skipper Lee Clark is unavailable for Fulham's Barclaycard Premiership clash with Leicester after failing to recover from his calf injury.
Midfielder Mark Pembridge is also nursing a calf problem and will miss the trip to the Walkers Stadium while Facundo Sava bruised his foot playing for the reserves and is rated 50-50.
Jerome Bonnissel is making progress in his bid to return from a serious ankle injury but is not yet in contention for a place.
But 18-year-old Liberian striker Collins John has a overcome a hamstring injury and is contention for the match - Fulham boss Chris Coleman said he looked "very sharp" training.
Leicester Paul Dickov is straining at the leash to lead Leicester City's attack in a crunch fixture with Fulham at The Walkers Stadium.
The Scotland international came off the bench to score and set up Muzzy Izzet's equaliser in the 3-2 defeat to Leeds United on Monday and that setback leaves City boss Micky Adams desperate to put one over his former club.
With Les Ferdinand due to miss out with a knee injury, Dickov's participation could be crucial as he seems to have shrugged off his own injury problems.
Callum Davidson and Lee Morris are unlikely to be available for Adams, who stresses he is not bitter about his departure from Fulham prior to the cash injection that took the West Londoners into The Premiership.
