Fulham will be without Carlos Vinicius (calf), Jorge Cuenca (ankle) and possibly Sasa Lukic, who suffered a serious shoulder ligament injury playing for Serbia at the weekend. The absence of Lukic could see Emile Smith Rowe return to the starting line-up as the No.10, with Pereira dropping into the centre alongside Sander Berge.
Joachim Andersen has withdrawn from the Denmark squad with an unspecified injury and will be assessed ahead of the game. If he is unable to play, Issa Diop will replace him alongside Calvin Bassey.
Aston Villa could be without Boubacar Kamara and Tyrone Mings (both knee) for Saturday's game, despite having featured for the Under-21s recently. John McGinn (hamstring) is also a doubt, while Ezri Konsa, Amadou Onana (both hamstring), Jacob Ramsey (muscle) and Jaden Philogene (unknown) are doubts and will be assessed ahead of the game.
Emery is likely to start super-sub Jhon Duran alongside Ollie Watkins in attack, while Ross Barkley will keep his midfield position alongside Youri Tielemans, with Leon Bailey and Morgan Rogers on the wings.

Latest Fulham vs Aston Villa football prediction
Fulham took 11 points from five unbeaten games between 24 August and 28 September, but they suffered a 3-2 defeat at champions Manchester City before the international break. The Cottagers took the lead through Andreas Pereira but were left to rue several missed chances. Rodrigo Muniz's late strike was only a consolation, after two goals from Mateo Kovacic and one from Jeremy Doku.
Despite dropping to eighth in the Premier League, Fulham are just three points behind Aston Villa, their next opponents. Manager Marco Silva hopes the defeat to Man City will give his players “courage” and “confidence”. Fulham will be back at Craven Cottage, where they have taken seven of their 11 points this season with wins over Leicester and Newcastle, and will be looking to improve their form.
Aston Villa are unbeaten in eight games in all competitions, including three wins and two draws in the Premier League. They have just won 1-0 at Bayern Munich in the Champions League and were held to a 0-0 draw by Manchester United in a tense game before the international break. Unai Emery insisted it was a positive to keep a first clean sheet since April.
Ahead of a three-game home run against Bologna, Bournemouth and Crystal Palace, Aston Villa travel to Fulham, having lost just one of their last 12 games in London. However, Villa have a mixed record away from home against Fulham, with three wins, two draws and five defeats in their last 10. Although Aston Villa won both games last season, Fulham will be tough to beat at home, so a draw is likely.
