Carlos Bocanegra returns from suspension to face Liverpool this weekend, but Elliott Omozusi must serve a ban after his sending off last week against Reading.

Chris Baird is fit and will return to the starting line-up, but youngster Nathan Ashton has picked up a thigh injury and misses out.

Shefki Kuqi could be handed his full debut in attack, and Alexey Smertin will be considered if Sanchez opts for a five-man midfield at Anfield.

Moritz Volz (shoulder and groin), Phillipe Christanval (knee), Kasey Keller (bicep), Lee Cook (knee) and Ian Pearce (ankle), Brian McBride (knee) and Jimmy Bullard (knee) are all still sidelined. Paul Konchesky serves the final match of a three-game ban.

Fulham (from): Niemi, Warner, Stefanovic, Hughes, Bocanegra, Baird, Leijer, Davis, Smertin, Murphy, Seol, Davies, Healy, Dempsey, Kamara, Kuqi.
