What is the team news?

NEIL WARNOCK was pleased that there were no more injury concerns to add to his squad but that it would be a while before two key players returned. 

The Bluebirds boss revealed before Christmas that Aron Gunnarsson and Danny Ward are both set for lengthy spells on the sidelines.

Gunnarsson, who has not played since the 1-0 win at Barnsley last month, will be out for four to six weeks following an operation on an ankle on December 22.

Ward is likely to be out for a lot longer, with Warnock expecting three months, after he was forced to have a knee operation to solve a persistent injury which has kept him out of the squad for the last few weeks.

Fulham received an injury boost before Christmas.

Floyd Ayite marked his return from hamstring injury with a goal in the 2-1 win over Barnsley on Saturday.

Neeskens Kebano could be in contention after the game against Barnsley came too soon for him.

Lucas Piazon has stepped up the training as he continues to recover from a broken leg but it is thought the game may come too soon for him.

Slavisa Jokanovic has no other injury or suspension concerns.
