Fulham will be without three injured players for Saturday's Premier League clash with Nottingham Forest at Craven Cottage.

Reiss Nelson has suffered a setback in his recovery from a thigh problem and remains on the sidelines with Kenny Tete (knee) and Harry Wilson (fractured foot).

Marco Silva named a much-changed starting lineup for Fulham's 2-1 win over Wigan Athletic in the fourth round of the FA Cup last weekend and he is expected to recall a number of his senior stars for Saturday's clash with Forest.

Raul Jimenez is Fulham's top scorer this season with 11 goals in all competitions, including eight on home soil, and he will be pushing to return up front, although Rodrigo Muniz has given Silva something to think about after netting a brace against Wigan last time out.

Alex Iwobi, Emile Smith Rowe and Adama Traore are all expected to be recalled at the expense of Martial Godo, Andreas Pereira and Joshua King, while Willian is in contention to feature in some capacity after re-joining the club on a free transfer earlier this month.

Sander Berge and Sasa Lukic are the most likely duo to start in centre-midfield, while Timothy Castagne is set to retain his spot at right-back, joining Joachim Andersen, Calvin Bassey and Antonee Robinson in a four-man defence.

Fulham possible starting lineup: Leno; Castagne, Andersen, Bassey, Robinson; Lukic, Berge; Traore, Smith Rowe, Iwobi; Jimenez
