Marco Silva will be able to include wily winger Willian in his side to face Burnley this afternoon despite the Brazilian veteran only playing an hour of the League Cup tie at Everton in midweek.

The former Arsenal and Chelsea wide man was taken off early at Goodison Park with the busy Christmas schedule in mind, according to the Fulham head coach. Silva told his pre-match press conference yesterday:

“We knew for the Everton game he would not be 100 per cent to play the 90 minutes. But he trained today [Friday] and will be okay for tomorrow.”

Fulham’s only absentees for the visit of the Clarets to Craven Cottage are Tim Ream, who is still sidelined by a calf complaint, and Adama Traore – with the winger struggling to shake off his own hamstring problem.
