Saša Lukic is Fulham's only absentee, meaning we could be boosted by an Oscar Bobb debut and the return of Rodrigo Muniz to the matchday squad for the first time since we last faced the Toffees, back in November.
Having just missed out on selection at Old Trafford, Rodrigo Muniz will be assessed ahead of a possible return in some capacity this weekend; however, Sasa Lukic (thigh) is unlikely to feature for another fortnight or longer as he recovers from his muscle issue.
Having scored his 12th consecutive penalty in English football at Old Trafford, surpassing Yaya Toure’s record of 11 from 11, Jimenez aims to add to his six top-flight goals this weekend.
The team’s leading goalscorer, however, is Harry Wilson with eight strikes, five of which have been match-winning efforts, and the Welshman will aim to be decisive again on Saturday.
Fulham possible starting lineup:
Leno; Tete, Andersen, Cuenca, Robinson; Iwobi, Berge; Wilson, Smith Rowe, Chukwueze; Jimenez

Everton, meanwhile, will be without Jack Grealish due to a foot injury that could rule him out for the season, although the Merseyside club will assess Vitaliy Mykolenko, who last featured in the 1-1 draw with Leeds United on January 26.
Both of Grealish’s league goals this term have been game-deciding efforts, level with Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, who has netted four in total heading into this weekend.
No Everton player has scored three goals away from home, with Thierno Barry, Iliman Ndiaye, Dewsbury-Hall and Beto all level on two each heading into this round of fixtures.
Everton possible starting lineup:
Pickford; O’Brien, Tarkowski, Keane, Branthwaite; Garner, Gueye; Armstrong, Dewsbury-Hall, Ndiaye; Barry
