Fulham host Liverpool at Craven Cottage on Sunday afternoon, with the visitors looking for three points to keep up their pursuit of sixth place in the Premier League.
Merseyside rivals Everton, who currently occupy sixth in the table, are five points ahead of Brendan Rodgers's side with two games remaining.
Fulham are bottom of the form guide having lost their last four games, including last week's 4-2 reversal at the hands of relegated Reading. Martin Jol's side will guarantee Premier League safety with a win.
Liverpool come into the match unbeaten in six games, although last week's stalemate with Everton was their fourth draw in that run.
Injured Fulham pair Mladen Petric and Simon Davies remain doubtful after both missed the defeat to Reading, while Steve Sidwell will miss the rest of the season through suspension.
Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard is out after undergoing surgery on a persistent shoulder problem so Jonjo Shelvey could take his place in midfield.
Daniel Sturridge is likely to retain his starting berth up front as Luis Suarez continues to serve his 10-match ban.
