Fulham
Louis Saha is out of the Premiership clash - and will not be seen in a Fulham shirt for another three weeks. The French striker, who sustained a hamstring injury in the early stages of the 3-2 comeback victory against Tottenham on September 11, will be sidelined for another fortnight. And as the Cottagers have a blank weekend on October 12 and 13 due to international action, he is not expected back until the home clash with Manchester United on October 19.
Centre-back Martin Djetou, who signed on a year-long loan from Parma in July but almost immediately needed a knee cartilage operation, is due back in full training next week. The 27-year-old has been doing ball work on his own this week.
Steve Finnan's comeback from a knee injury, shelved at the last minute before Monday's 0-0 draw with west London rivals Chelsea, could take place at Goodison Park.
Fulham (from):
Edwin van der Sar(G), Maik Taylor(G),
Steve Finnan(D), Zat Knight(D/C), Alain Goma(D/C),
Abdeslam Ouaddou(D/C),
Rufus Brevett(D), Pierre Wome(D)
Sylvain Legwinski(M), John Collins(M), Sean Davis(D/M), Lee Clark(M),
Junichi Inamoto(M/A), Steed Malbranque(M/A), Luis Boa morte(M/A),
Steve Marlet(A), Facundo Sava(A), Barry Hayles(A).

Everton
Everton could give Nigerian World Cup star Joseph Yobo his first-team debut when they host Fulham. The £5million defender successfully completed a reserve game in midweek as he recovers from his second ankle injury since joining in the summer and he may start on the substitutes' bench.
But full-back Steve Watson, who suffered a groin strain in that second team outing against Manchester City, faces another spell on the sidelines.
Everton (from):
Richard Wright(G), Paul Gerrard(G),
Tony Hibbert(D), David Weir(D), Alan Stubbs(D), Joseph Yobo(D), Li Wei Feng(D), David Unsworth(D), Gary Naysmith(D),
Niclas Alexandersson(M), Li Tie(M),
Thomas Gravesen(M), Mark Pembridge(M), Tobias Linderoth(M), Lee Carsley(M),
Wayne Rooney(A), Kevin Campbell(A),
Tomasz Radzinski(A).
