Harry Wilson - Doubtful for Saturday Wilson (knee) is in doubt for the trip to West Ham on Saturday. According to manager Marco Silva, "It was a big knock on the knee and it was painful. We are still assessing him and...

Impact Wilson is likely to miss Saturday's match due to a knee injury sustained during Monday's game against Nottingham Forest. The injury appears to be a painful knock and not serious, suggesting a quicker-than-expected return. He had been on a great run prior to his injury, recording four goals and three assists within the last eight PL matches. If ruled out, Adama Traore is expected to start in his place on Saturday.

Jorge Cuenca - Clean sheet in rare start Cuenca recorded six clearances and one interception in Monday's 1-0 victory over Nottingham Forest. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 82nd minute.

Impact Cuenca made just his third start of the season Monday with Calvin Bassey missing his first match due to his participation in AFCON for Nigeria. Cuenca slotted right in and he and the Fulham defense only allowed two shots on target in the clean sheet. He contributed six clearances, two blocked shots and one interception in the full 90 minutes. After this impressive performance, it seems likely that he will maintain his spot in the starting XI until Bassey returns from international duty.

Joachim Andersen - Keeps clean sheet Monday Andersen had one tackle (zero won), eight clearances and two interceptions in Monday's 1-0 win over Nottingham Forest. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 94th minute.

Impact Andersen kept his fourth clean sheet of the season Monday and his first since Nov. 22. After a rough recent run of form, Andersen and the defense stepped up in a big way, not allowing a single shot on target by Forest. Andersen logged eight clearances, two interceptions, one blocked shot and won three duels in his full 90 minutes of action.

Raul Jimenez - Scores lone goal Monday Jimenez scored one goal to go with five shots (one on goal) in Monday's 1-0 victory versus Nottingham Forest. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 52nd minute.

Impact Jimenez scored the only goal of Monday's match, a strike from the penalty spot just before the halftime break. It marked his third goal of the season and his fifth goal contribution. He took five shots for the third time this season, but his penalty was the only one he put on target. He was subbed off in the 85th minute for Jonah Kusi-Asare.

Bernd Leno - Keeps clean sheet Monday Leno recorded two saves and secured a clean sheet in Monday's 1-0 victory over Nottingham Forest.

Impact After conceding nine goals over his last three starts, Leno bounced back Monday with his fourth clean sheet of the season. His defense was a huge part of that, only allowing two shots on target throughout the 90 minutes. Leno faces another favorable matchup Saturday at West Ham, a side which has scored 19 goals through 17 matches this season.

Harry Wilson - Needs to be assessed after knock Wilson (undisclosed) was forced off in the 84th minute of Monday's 1-0 victory against Nottingham Forest due to a knock and needs to be assessed, although coach Marco Silva said he...

Impact Wilson will be assessed on Tuesday after suffering a heavy knock late in Monday's victory against Nottingham Forest. The right winger does not appear to have twisted anything, but given the impact, further scans will be carried out to avoid any major setback. That said, if Wilson has to miss some time to recover, a change will be required, as he is an undisputed starter in the frontline for the Cottagers, with Adama Traore likely stepping into his spot until he returns.

Sasa Lukic - Starting Monday Lukic (groin) is back in the starting XI for Monday's clash with Nottingham Forest.

Impact Lukic is back in the starting XI after overcoming a groin issue. The midfielder has been a bench option more often than not in recent weeks but despite the groin issue he's now back in the starting XI. Lukic being fully fit is a good sign especially with a busy schedule and some players missing for AFCON, meaning he could have a bigger role in the coming weeks.

What's eating Enzo Maresca? Chelsea boss learning that success doesn't always mean stability at Stamford Bridge

Sasa Lukic - Late call against Forest Lukic (groin) will be a late fitness call ahead of Monday's clash against Nottingham Forest, coach Marco Silva said in the press conference, according to Jack Kelly from Fulhamish....

Impact Lukic was forced off as precaution at halftime against Newcastle in Wednesday's Carabao Cup game but his injury to his groin doesn't look serious. The midfielder will be a late fitness call after the final training session to see if he can be deemed fit enough to feature in Monday's clash against Nottingham Forest. That said, Lukic started only once in his last four games, therefore a potential absence won't be as impactful as when he was an undisputed starter at the early stages on the campaign.

Sasa Lukic - Forced off as precaution Lukic (groin) was forced off as a precaution at halftime during Wednesday's 2-1 defeat against Newcastle in the Carabao Cup due to feeling his groin, coach Marco Silva said in a pr...

Impact Lukic couldn't carry on for the second half of Wednesday's clash against the Magpies in the Carabao Cup since he felt something in his groin and was forced off as a precaution. This issue shouldn't make him a big doubt for Monday's clash against Nottingham Forest since he has some time to recover before the game, but his situation has to be monitored since he remains a regular starter for Fulham, although he lost his starting spot in the last weeks.

Antonee Robinson - Goes 90 in first start Robinson went the full 90, producing five crosses, four tackles (three won) and three interceptions in Saturday's 3-2 win against Burnley.

Impact Robinson made a surprising return to the XI Saturday and more surprisingly went the entire game. After missing the last two months entirely and then most of the preseason, it was a testament to his fitness that he could do a full 90 in his first start. It's hard to see him starting every game over the holiday period, but if he's up to it, Marco Silva will likely welcome it due to the absences of Calvin Bassey and Ryan Sessegnon.

Maresca committed to Chelsea after revelation about 'worst' period at club

Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca says he is happy at the club

DECEMBER 15, 2025 • Associated Press

Samuel Chukwueze - Serving with Nigeria Chukwueze has been called up by Nigeria for AFCON.

Impact Chukwueze will have to take a step away from Fulham just after starting to catch fire with the club, as the attacker is off to serve at AFCON. He has started in their past two games, so this is a loss for the club, especially after four goal contributions in their past five games, likely forcing Kevin and Adama Traore into more time. He is likely to miss out until the second week of January, potentially for more time.

DECEMBER 15, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Alex Iwobi - Traveling with Nigeria Iwobi has been called up by Nigeria for AFCON and is unavailable for the time being.

Impact Iwobi is off for AFCON and will not be with Fulham for the next few weeks, serving with Nigeria instead for the time being. Unfortunately for the club, this is a major loss, as the midfielder has yet to miss a start all season. This will likely force Sasa Lukic and Tom Cairney into more time, with Iwobi set for a return sometime in January.

Samuel Chukwueze - Assists in transition Chukwueze assisted once to go with three crosses (zero accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 3-2 win over Burnley.

Impact Chukwueze's threaded ball in transition opened up the Burnley backline and led to Fulham's final goal in their 3-2 triumph at Turf Moor. Across his last five appearances (three starts), the attacker has created nine chances from seven crosses (one accurate) and seven shots (two on goal) while soaring twice and supplying three assists. After beginning his Fulham career with five substitute appearances, Chukweze has been named to the starting XI in three of their last four league matchups.

DECEMBER 15, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Emile Smith Rowe - Opens scoring in win Smith Rowe scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) in Saturday's 3-2 win against Burnley.

Impact Simth Rowe arrived with exquisite timing at the near post Saturday to knock-in Fulham's first goal in their 3-2 road victory over Burnley. The goal marks the attacking-midfielder's third of the season and second across his last three appearances (three starts). After making just one start in league play across 13 appearances between Aug. and Nov., Smith Rowe has now been named to the starting XI in each of Fulham's three Dec. league fixtures. Saturdays's 89-minute shift marked his longest outing of the campaign.
