Fulham host Brighton with continuing doubts over the future of Chris Martin.
The on-loan striker refused to play at Reading on Friday amid claims he wants to return to parent club Derby.
Boss Slavisa Jokanovic has vowed not to let the Scot leave but Martin's participation against the Seagulls appears unlikely.
Chelsea loanee Tomas Kalas could return after a hamstring injury ruled him out at Reading, with the match called off at half-time because of fog.
Fulham have lost their last two home league games against Brighton, conceding two goals in each match.
The Cottagers are unbeaten in their last six home league games - they have not managed seven since April 2011

Brighton will check on full-back Seb Pocognoli, who would have missed the visit of Cardiff through injury had it not also fallen victim to the fog.
Midfielder Beram Kayal is still out with an ankle injury but could return in the FA Cup against MK Dons next weekend.
Defender Liam Rosenior remains sidelined by the ankle problem which has ruled him out since August.
Striker Elvis Manu has joined Dutch side Go Ahead Eagles on loan for the rest of the season.
Brighton have won their last four league games against Fulham, including coming from behind to claim a 2-1 victory in November this season.
Brighton have lost just one of their last 18 away league games (excluding play-offs), winning 11 and drawing six.
The Seagulls have kept a clean sheet in five of their last eight away contests.
