Fulham will be without Neeskens Kebano for several months after the winger sustained a ruptured Achilles in training.
Kebano is the only new injury issue for Fulham boss Marco Silva, with Layvin Kurzawa having trained with the team all week after a muscle problem.
Manor Solomon remains on the long-term injured list, with Silva not expecting the winger to be available before the new year.

– Manchester City are unbeaten in their last 14 Premier League games against Fulham, winning 11 and drawing three. They’ve won each of their nine against them in the competition, keeping a clean sheet in each of the last five.
– Three of Fulham’s four Premier League victories against Manchester City have come at the Etihad Stadium, most recently a 3-1 victory in April 2009.
– Manchester City have won their last 12 meetings with Fulham in all competitions, only ever having longer winning runs against Watford (15) and West Bromwich Albion (14). They’ve also netted at least twice in each of their last 13 against the Cottagers in all competitions.
– Fulham have won just two of their 15 Premier League away games against reigning champions (D2 L11), though they did win their most recent such match 1-0 at Liverpool in March 2021 (also 3-1 at Man Utd in October 2003).
– Manchester City have won their last 10 home Premier League games, scoring at least three times in every single victory (43 goals in total).
