Boss Slavisa Jokanovic has an otherwise fully-fit squad for the Craven Cottage clash, with Fulham looking to make it 20 games unbeaten and keep the pressure on second-placed Cardiff.

Reading can welcome back midfielder Dave Edwards from suspension. Edwards missed Saturday's 1-0 win over Preston after he was sent off against Aston Villa in midweek.

In Championship meetings during the regular season, Slavisa Jokanovic's two home matches against Reading have ended in victory, winning 4-1 as Watford manager in March 2015 and 5-0 last season with Fulham.

The Royals have won two of their last three Championship games, after a run of just one win in 18 prior to that.

Fulham's club record run of 19 league games unbeaten (W15 D4) is also the longest current run in English league football.

Sone Aluko - who played in the reverse fixture for Fulham but now plays for Reading - has scored one and assisted one in two previous league matches against the Cottagers.

Prutton's prediction

Fulham just don't look like they know how to lose anymore. Their last defeat came back in mid-December and that was against Sunderland!

Paul Clement has two wins in three and he has Reading heading on the path to safety. They're not quite out of the woods yet, but I can't see them getting anything from Craven Cottage.

David Prutton predicts: 2-0 (13/2 with Sky Bet)
