Despite the return of Jarrad Branthwaite from injury, Michael Keane keeps his place in the starting line-up after his fine recent performances.

Manager Marco Silva is forced into one change for the trip to Merseyside. Issa Diop comes in to replace the suspended Joachim Andersen, who was sent off in the 3-1 defeat to Aston Villa last weekend.

Fulham: Leno; Tete, Diop, Bassey, Robinson; Pereira, Berge; Traore, Smith Rowe, Iwobi; Jimenez
