Fulham are without Kenny Tete, unlikely to be called upon as he returns from attending the birth of his child, and Terence Kongolo, though Mario Lemina is back after being ineligible to face parent club Southampton.
Lemina's return could mean Harrison Reed dropping out, while Aleksandar Mitrovic is another of those pushing for a recall to the side.
Fulham possible starting lineup:
Areola; Aina, Andersen, Adarabioyo; Cordova-Reid, Lemina, Anguissa, Loftus-Cheek, Robinson; Lookman, Mitrovic

Gareth Bale sustained another injury in last week's EFL Cup quarter-final win over Stoke City and subsequently missed the draw with Wolves at the weekend.
Tottenham's only confirmed injury or suspension absentee is Giovani Lo Celso, who will play no part in the remainder of the festive and new year fixtures.
Given the disappointing nature of the Wolves result and the quick turnaround in matches, Mourinho is expected to make changes to his starting lineup.
That could potentially mean a change in formation and rare Premier League starts for the likes of Dele Alli and Joe Rodon.
Tottenham Hotspur possible starting lineup:
Lloris; Aurier, Alderweireld, Rodon, Reguilon; Hojbjerg, Ndombele; Bergwijn, Alli, Son; Kane
