Fulham travel to Manchester City on Sunday with an injury-hit frontline missing Aleksandar Mitrovic, Anthony Knockaert and Aboubakar Kamara.

The trio have scored more than half of Fulham’s 42 goals this season but, without them, boss Scott Parker is likely to look to Ivan Cavaleiro and Bobby Reid to give his side a forward threat against Pep Guardiola’s side.

Fulham upset Aston Villa in the third round but their main focus is securing promotion back to the Premier League.

They are third in the Championship, three points off the automatic promotion places and chasing down stuttering Leeds in second place.

Fulham are set to face a near full-strength City, who are targeting the cup competitions, with Liverpool 13 points clear and running away with the Premier League title race.

The west Londoners go into the game on a good run, having lost only once since Christmas.
