Fulham came out of their nine-goal spectacular with Man City unscathed on the fitness front, meaning that Silva only has Antonee Robinson (knee) and Rodrigo Muniz (thigh) missing this weekend.
Not for the first time in a Cottagers kit, Chukwueze showed his super-sub qualities on Tuesday night, and the Nigerian winger currently averages a goal or assist every 46 minutes in the competition - the best ratio for any player with at least 200 minutes played in Premier League history.
Silva now faces a critical dilemma on whether to trust Chukwueze from the off or wait to unleash him in the latter stages, but he has surely done enough for a place in the XI here, potentially at the expense of Harry Wilson.
Fulham possible starting lineup:
Leno; Castagne, Andersen, Bassey, Sessegnon; Berge, King; Chukwueze, Smith Rowe, Iwobi; Jimenez

Crystal Palace also emerged from their midweek win without any fresh woes, and Glasner is keeping his fingers crossed over the availability of left-back Borna Sosa, who is on track to return from a knock.
However, Ismaila Sarr is still sidelined with his ankle injury, while Cheick Doucoure (knee), Chadi Riad (knee), Caleb Kporha (back) and Rio Cardines (adductor) will play no part on Sunday.
Daichi Kamada operated in a more advanced role against Burnley in Sarr's absence, but Justin Devenny and Romain Esse are both
alternative options behind Jean-Philippe Mateta.
Crystal Palace starting lineup:
Henderson; Guehi, Richards, Lacroix; Munoz, Wharton, Hughes, Mitchell; Devenny, Pino; Mateta
