Fulham boss Scott Parker could hand another start to Fabio Carvalho against Manchester United on Tuesday night following the 18-year-old's excellent performance in Saturday's 3-1 loss to Southampton.
Carvalho was on the scoresheet and played the full 90 minutes in just his second Premier League appearance, and there will now be a temptation for Parker to drop the youngster out of the XI due to concerns over fitness.
The Cottagers are planning for next season in the Championship, though, and there is certainly a chance that the talented attacker could be handed another starting role against Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side.
Parker is expected to revert to a back four for this match, while there might be a spot in the middle of the park for Mario Lemina, who was ineligible against his parent club on Saturday.
Fulham will be unable to keep hold of on-loan defender Joachim Andersen this summer, but the 24-year-old should continue in the XI, while Ademola Lookman could return to the side.
Ivan Cavaleiro played through the middle against Southampton, but there might be a start for Aleksandar Mitrovic in this match as Parker looks ahead to next season.
Mitrovic has struggled to contribute in the Premier League this term but could potentially be a huge player for the Cottagers in the Championship during the 2021-22 campaign.
Tom Cairney and Terence Kongolo, though, remain on the treatment table for the capital side.
Fulham possible starting lineup: Areola; Tete, Andersen, Adarabioyo, Aina; Lemina, Reed; Lookman, Reid, Carvalho; Mitrovic
