Fulham vs Leeds United - Tim Ream unavailable for Fulham's clash with Leeds

Posted Wednesday, October 21, 2015 by PA

Fulham manager Kit Symons remains without Tim Ream for Wednesday's visit of Leeds after the defender suffered an injury on international duty with the USA.

Symons could also be without goalkeeper Andy Lonergan, who faces a late fitness test having come off during Saturday's 0-0 draw at Middlesbrough with a leg injury.

Scott Parker is in contention to return after remaining on the bench on Saturday, as are George Williams and Matt Smith after building up their fitness.

With no suspensions, Fulham otherwise have a fully-fit squad to choose from.

Leeds' new head coach Steve Evans has confirmed defender Liam Cooper will travel with the squad.

Cooper has made a quicker than expected recovery after being forced out of last weekend's home defeat to Brighton with a knee injury, but Evans may choose to rest him until Saturday.

Defender Charlie Taylor missed out on Saturday due to a virus and is expected to be sidelined for up to three weeks.

Evans has no other injury or suspension issues, with defender Sam Byram, winger Will Buckley and midfielder Luke Murphy all pushing for recalls to the starting line-up.
