Fulham manager Scott Parker will be without Kenny Tete once again, although the full-back is not too far away from returning.
Terence Kongolo and Joshua Onomah could be back in contention, though, while Parker must decide whether to once again leave out Aleksandar Mitrovic and Tom Cairney after both were dropped to the bench on Monday night.
The squad will likely include former Manchester City player Tosin Adarabioyo, who moved to Fulham for less than two million pounds in the summer transfer window. The 23-year-old has played six times for Fulham so far this season and will likely start on Saturday.
Fulham possible starting lineup:
Areola; Cordova-Reid, Aina, Andersen, Adarabioyo, Robinson; Loftus-Cheek, Reed, Anguissa, Lookman; Cavaleiro

Man City will assess the fitness of club-record goalscorer Sergio Aguero ahead of this match, with the striker having missed the last two games due to a knee injury.
Guardiola has insisted that the problem is not too serious, but Gabriel Jesus is set to lead the line after sitting out in midweek.
Nathan Ake returned to the bench for the trip to Porto, meaning that Aguero is Man City's only injury concern head into the busy December schedule.
Riyad Mahrez will be expecting to start again after his hat-trick against Burnley saw him move to the top of Man City's scoring charts for the season.
Manchester City possible starting lineup:
Ederson; Walker, Dias, Laporte, Mendy; Rodri, Gundogan; Mahrez, De Bruyne, Torres; Jesus
