Fulham manager Scott Parker has no new injury concerns to contend with as Fulham travel to Everton looking for their first-ever league victory at Goodison Park.
Parker could hand a first Fulham start to Josh Maja, who has joined from Bordeaux.
Providing that Parker sticks with a back four, Andre-Frank Zambo Anguissa could take the place of Mario Lemina in midfield.
Captain Tom Cairney remains sidelined, however, with an on-going knee problem, with the manager unsure when he could be in line for a first-team return.
Terence Kongolo faces a lengthy return from a broken foot and subsequent knock but he could feature before the end of the season, although may spend some time regaining match fitness with the under-23s.
Fulham possible starting lineup:
Areola; Tete, Andersen, Adarabioyo, Robinson; Reed, Zambo-Anguissa; Decordova-Reid, Loftus-Cheek, Lookman; Maja

Everton manager Carlo
Ancelotti will be reluctant to take any risks on Dominic Calvert-Lewin after he sustained a hamstring issue in midweek.
Fellow England international Jordan Pickford sits out a third match with a rib injury which means Robin Olsen, who has conceded seven in his last two matches, will continue in goal.
Lucas Digne and James Rodriguez are both doubts for this contest, which could lead to Mason Holgate and Josh King being drafted into the Everton XI.
Everton possible starting lineup:
Olsen; Coleman, Holgate, Keane, Godfrey; Doucoure, Davies; Iwobi, Sigurdsson, King; Richarlison
