Fulham team news
Marco Silva has no new injury concerns to contend with, but suggested he could rotate his starting XI for the tie.
Sunderland team news
It was confirmed this week that Corry Evans would miss the remainder of the season after the Sunderland captain suffered an ACL injury against Boro at the weekend. Elliot Embleton is also out for the campaign, while Lynden Hooch probably won’t recover from his hip injury in time for the trip to Craven Cottage. Alex Pritchard and Dennis Cirkin could return, though, while midfielder Pierre Ekwah will be pushing for a debut following his transfer from West Ham United, as will Isaac Lihadji, should he receive international clearance in time following his move from Lille. Joe Gelhardt signed on loan from Leeds United on Friday but is cup-tied, and Luke O’Nien is suspended.
