Fulham Availability
Fulham face several selection issues.
- A. Iwobi (Injury) is sidelined.
- Kevin (Foot Injury) is sidelined.
- R. Sessegnon (Hamstring Injury) is sidelined.
- S. Berge (Illness) is doubtful.
There are no listed suspensions for Fulham, so disciplinary absences do not add to their problems.
Bournemouth Availability
Bournemouth’s concerns are mostly fitness-related.
- L. Cook (Hamstring Injury) is doubtful.
- J. Kluivert (Knee Injury) is doubtful.
- J. Soler (Hamstring Injury) is doubtful.
No Bournemouth players are reported suspended, so any further changes would come from late fitness tests rather than bans.
Impact Summary
Fulham’s absentees primarily affect midfield depth and attacking rotation, but their key creator H. Wilson, with 10 goals and 6 assists, remains available, preserving much of their attacking output. Bournemouth’s main attacking threats E. Kroupi (12 goals) and A. Semenyo (10 goals, 3 assists) are also available, meaning their core firepower is intact despite multiple doubtful names.
