Fulham have no new injury concerns for the trip to Goodison Park.
Aleksandar Mitrovic will continue to serve his lengthy eight-match ban following his sending off against Man United, with Carlos Vinicius expected to deputise again up front.
Willian returned last weekend from his ban following the United debacle, and he was arguably Fulham's best player despite defeat against West Ham.
Kenny Tete and Issa Diop could reclaim their places in Fulham's back four after the pair dropped to the bench for Cedric Soares and Tosin Adarabioyo at Craven Cottage last Saturday.
Layvin Kurzawa and Neeskens Kebano remain on the absentee list for the visitors.
Fulham possible starting lineup:
Leno; Tete, Ream, Diop, Robinson; Reed, Palhinha, Decordova-Reid, Pereira, Willian; Vinicius

Everton captain Seamus Coleman has been ruled out due to a minor hamstring injury sustained in last weekend's defeat at Manchester United.
Dominic Calvert-Lewin has started training on grass again and could be involved in the squad for this one after missing Everton's last nine matches.
That could put both Simms and Gray in danger of dropping to the bench, as Dyche may want to return to a three-in-midfield formation.
Doucoure remains suspended, meaning one of James Garner or Tom Davies could come in to play alongside Amadou Onana and Idrissa Gueye in midfield.
Andros Townsend is still out, but Nathan Patterson made his first appearance for the Toffees off the bench last week after three months out.
Everton
possible starting lineup:
Pickford; Coleman, Keane, Tarkowski, Godfrey; Iwobi, Onana, Gueye, Garner, McNeil; Gray
