Team News: Fulham unchanged for Wolverhampton Wanderers trip

Fulham unchanged for Wolves trip

Slavisa Jokanovic has named an unchanged Fulham side as they travel to Wolverhampton Wanderers this afternoon.

The Serbian keeps faith with the XI that delivered a 5-0 hammering of Reading at Craven Cottage last weekend, with Chris Martin again leading the line after his brace against the Royals.

Tom Cairney, Floyd Ayite and Sone Aluko provide the attacking support, while Kevin McDonald is named in defensive midfield on his first return to Molineux since his summer switch from Wolves.

For the hosts, Paul Lambert makes two changes from the side that claimed a 2-1 win at 10-man Queens Park Rangers nine days ago.

Number-one keeper Carl Ikeme picked up an Achilles injury at Loftus Road and with backup Andy Lonergan also injured, 19-year-old Harry Burgoyne comes in for his club debut.

Richard Stearman is ineligible to face his parent club so Kortney Hause is brought in to partner captain Danny Batth at centre-back, with Matt Doherty and Dominic Iorfa operating either side.

Conor Coady, Romain Saiss and Dave Edwards patrol the middle of the park, while Nouha Dicko, Ivan Cavaleiro and Helder Costa man the front line.

Wolverhampton Wanderers: Burgoyne; Doherty, Hause, Batth, Iorfa; Coady, Saiss, Edwards; Cavaleiro, Costa, Dicko Subs: Flatt, Borthwick-Jackson, Saville, Price, Teixeira, Enobakhare, Bodvarsson

Fulham: Button; Fredericks, Ream, Kalas, Malone; McDonald, Johansen; Cairney, Aluko, Ayite; Martin Subs: Bettinelli, Odoi, Kebano, Parker, Sigurdsson, Piazon, Sessegnon
