Both sides will miss a few players through injury ahead of this clash. Orel Mangala’s absence will be the standout one for the home side. He will be joined on the sidelines by Omar Richards and Moussa Niakhate. Otherwise, they have more or less everyone available for this match. On the other hand, Fulham will be sweating over the injury situation of Antonee Robinson. It is unclear if he will play any part on Friday night. One thing is clear though they will most likely miss the services of Manor Solomon and Harry Wilson.
