Fulham's Kenny Tete and Reiss Nelson will definitely miss out, while Sander
Berge and Rodrigo Muniz are major doubts but Harrison Reed’s fitness is improving after he made his comeback in last week’s win over Watford.
Head coach Silva made changes against Watford in the FA Cup, but the big-hitters will be recalled here, including Issa Diop, Raul Jimenez, Tom Cairney, Calvin Bassey and Bernd Leno, while Harry Wilson could also be in the XI.
Jimenez has been in excellent form for the visitors this season, scoring eight times in 20 appearances, and he is certain to lead the line, with Adama Traore expected to be among the substitutes.
Fulham possible starting lineup:
Leno; Diop, Andersen, Bassey; Castagne, Lukic, Cairney, Robinson; Wilson, Jimenez, Iwobi

West Ham will be without the services of Emerson, Jean-Clair Todibo, Crysencio Summerville, Michail Antonio, Jarrod Bowen and Niclas Fullkrug due to injury problems on Tuesday night, demonstrating the team's issues in the final third of the field.
As a result, there is expected to be a start through the middle for Danny Ings, who has one goal and one assist in 10 Premier League appearances this season, with his only strike of the campaign coming against Fulham in the reverse game, which finished 1-1.
Edson Alvarez is currently being linked with a move to Monaco, but the Mexican should start, while Vladimir Coufal and Carlos Soler are also in line for recalls due to the fitness issues which occurred against Villa.
West Ham United possible starting lineup:
Fabianski; Coufal, Mavropanos, Kilman, Wan-Bissaka; Alvarez, Soler; Kudus, Soucek, Paqueta; Ings
