Fulham's biggest concern is the fitness of centre-forward Raul Jimenez, who is currently still being assessed after experiencing discomfort in his knee, and his potential absence is a blow given Rodrigo Muniz is injured.
If the forward is not ready to be included in the squad, Adama Traore could come into the XI, especially as he was brought on in the 11th minute against Aston Villa.
Sander Berge is set to be paired together with Sasa Lukic in a double pivot, and the duo could be asked to protect central defenders Joachim Andersen and Calvin Bassey.
Fulham possible starting lineup:
Leno; Castagne, Andersen, Bassey, Sessegnon; Lukic, Berge; Wilson, King, Iwobi; Traore
