Fulham's big team news involves Aleksandar Mitrovic, with the centre-forward, who has nine league goals this term, ruled out of the contest due to a foot injury, and there are fears over his involvement for Serbia at the World Cup.
Neeskens Kebano and Manor Solomon are also missing for the home side through injury, while Kenny Tete and Harrison Reed are both out of the match through suspension.
Bobby Decordova-Reid is back from a ban of his own, though, and he is expected to start at right-back.
Tom Cairney could come in for a start in midfield due to Reed's absence, while Carlos Vinicius is again likely to feature at centre-forward due to Mitrovic's injury.
Andreas Pereira, who scored from the penalty spot against Man City last time out, will also line up for the home side against his former club.
Fulham possible starting lineup:
Leno; Decordova-Reid, Diop, Ream, Robinson; Cairney, Palhinha; Wilson, Pereira, Willian; Vinicius

As for Man United, Ten Hag had been hopeful that Cristiano Ronaldo (illness) and Antony (hip) could both be available for this weekend's contest at Craven Cottage, but the pair have allegedly not made the trip to London, while Jadon Sancho is also believed to still be missing through illness.
Raphael Varane, Brandon Williams and Axel Tuanzebe will again definitely be out through injury, while Diogo Dalot is suspended for the Red Devils following his red card against Villa in the Premier League.
As a result, Tyrell Malacia could come in for a start at right-back, with Victor Lindelof getting the nod over Harry Maguire to feature alongside Lisandro Martinez in the middle of the defence.
Anthony Martial started against Villa in the EFL Cup on Thursday and could be in the XI once again here, with Alejandro Garnacho potentially being asked to play off the right to allow Marcus Rashford to feature on the left.
Manchester United
possible starting lineup:
De Gea; Malacia, Lindelof, Martinez, Shaw; Casemiro, Eriksen, Fernandes; Garnacho, Martial, Rashford
