Fulham are set to be without Carlos Vinicius (calf), Jorge Cuenca (ankle) and potentially Sasa Lukic who sustained a serious shoulder ligament injury on international duty with Serbia last weekend.

The absence of Lukic would likely see Emile Smith Rowe recalled to the starting lineup to operate in the number 10 role, with Pereira dropping into a deeper midfield position alongside Sander Berge.

Joachim Andersen withdrew from the Denmark squad due to an unspecified knock and he is set to be assessed ahead of kickoff. Issa Diop could be upon to start at centre-back alongside Calvin Bassey if Andersen is not deemed fit to feature.

Fulham possible starting lineup:
Leno; Tete, Andersen, Bassey, Robinson; Berge, Pereira; Traore, Smith Rowe, Iwobi; Muniz

Aston Villa's Saturday game will likely come too soon for long-term absentees Boubacar Kamara and Tyrone Mings (both knee), even though they have both played for the Under-21s over the last fortnight.

John McGinn (hamstring) could also miss out, while Ezri Konsa, Amadou Onana (both hamstring), Jacob Ramsey (muscle) and Jaden Philogene (unspecified) are all doubts and will be assessed ahead of kickoff.

This could be the game that Emery finally hands super sub Jhon Duran a start in attack alongside Ollie Watkins, while Ross Barkley could retain his place in midfield next to Youri Tielemans, with Leon Bailey and Morgan Rogers operating out wide.

Aston Villa possible starting lineup:
Martinez; Cash, Carlos, Torres, Digne; Bailey, Barkley, Tielemans, Rogers; Duran, Watkins
