Fulham will hope that the injuries in their forward line do not prove to be costly against Arsenal in the Premier League on Tuesday.

Winger Harry Wilson's foot injury is set to sideline him until at least the middle of April, while Reiss Nelson is not scheduled to return from a hamstring issue until May.

However, former Arsenal players Willian and Alex Iwobi are available for selection, and they could be chosen to flank striker Raul Jimenez.

While Emile Smith Rowe will want to impress against his former teammates, he may have to settle for a place on the bench given Andreas Pereira is also battling for a starting spot in an advanced midfield position.

Silva has often utilised a double pivot during his time at Craven Cottage, and considering how well Sander Berge and Sasa Lukic played against Arsenal in the reverse fixture in December, there is no reason to suggest that they will not feature on Tuesday.

Right-back Kenny Tete will also miss out on Tuesday's match due to a knee issue, so expect Timothy Castagne to play on the right side of a back four, while Antonee Robinson will certainly play on the left.

Centre-backs Joachim Andersen and Calvin Bassey have regularly featured in defence, and they will likely be tasked with protecting goalkeeper Bernd Leno.

Fulham possible starting lineup: Leno; Castagne, Andersen, Bassey, Robinson; Berge, Lukic; Iwobi, Pereira, Willian; Jimenez
