Fulham's Tom Cairney and Terence Kongolo – who have yet to play this campaign – remain out injured, while Kenny Tete (hamstring), Antonee Robinson (knee) and Fabio Carvalho (toe) are also on the sidelines.
Central midfielder Harrison Reed returned to the first XI in midweek and he is set to keep his place in a deep-lying role alongside Jean Michael Seri.
Bobby Decordova-Reid, who has scored just one goal in nine league appearances so far this season, could keep his place in the number 10 role behind Mitrovic, though the likes of Josh Onomah and Ivan Cavaleiro will feel they deserve a chance in the starting lineup.
Fulham possible starting lineup:
Gazzaniga; Odoi, Ream, Adarabioyo, Bryan; Reed, Seri; Wilson, Decordova-Reid, Kebano; Mitrovic

Coventry wing-back Fankaty Dabo, who was sent off against Cardiff City two weeks ago, has served his three-match suspension and is set to replace Todd Kane in the starting lineup.
Robins has no injury concerns at present, but after their heavy defeat in midweek he may consider making a few changes to his first XI.
Top goalscorer Viktor Gyokeres, who has scored seven times this season, is expected to keep his place up front and he could be joined in attack by Tyler Walker which would see Martin Waghorn drop to the bench.
Coventry City possible starting lineup:
Moore; Hyam, McFadzean, Clarke-Salter; Dabo, Hamer, Allen, Maatsen; O'Hare; Walker, Gyokeres<
