Latest Fulham vs Bristol City team information

Fulham could rotate their squad from the weekend. Rodrigo Muniz is likely to make way for Raul Jimenez, while Joshua King could be replaced by Emile Smith Rowe.

On the wing, Timothy Castagne could be rested, making way for Harry Wilson. Goalkeeper Bernd Leno could also be replaced by Benjamin Lecomte.

Bristol City's defence is weakened by the absence of left-back Cameron Pring, centre-back Luke McNally and goalkeeper Max O'Leary. Therefore, George Tanner, Robert Dickie and Zak Vyner will form a central defence trio, behind goalkeeper Joe Lumley, with full-backs Mark Sykes and Elijah Morrison.

Midfielder Joe Williams is still out with an ankle injury and is not expected to return for a few weeks, so Jason Knight and Adam Randell are likely to be the midfield options in midweek.

Fulham:

Lecomte; Tete, Andersen, Bassey, Sessegnon; Lukic, Berge; Wilson, Smith Rowe, Iwobi; Jimenez

Bristol City:

Lumley; Tanner, Dickie, Vyner; Sykes, Knight, Randell, Morrison; Twine, Mehmeti; Yeboah

Latest Fulham vs Bristol City football prediction

Marco Silva and Fulham dreamed of a place in the European Cup in the 2024-25 season, but in the end could not finish in the top 10.

Having started the Premier League season with two draws, Fulham are currently 13th and have reason to be concerned about their chances of qualifying for European competition. Having seen Crystal Palace qualify for the UEFA Conference League thanks to last season's FA Cup win, Silva's side may see the League Cup as a possible route to that goal.

On Sunday, Fulham came from behind to earn a point in a 1-1 draw with Ruben Amorim's Manchester United, with Emile Smith Rowe equalising after a Muniz own goal.

Heading into Wednesday’s game, the Craven Cottage side will be hoping for their first win of the season, with confidence coming from having won three and drawn one of their last four home games, despite losing four of their last five competitive games at the end of last season.

Meanwhile, Bristol City, managed by Gerhard Struber, were disappointed to be eliminated in the Championship play-offs for the 2024-25 season. However, their unbeaten start to the season suggests they could continue to challenge for promotion.

While the priority remains the Championship, the Robins can take inspiration from their long run in the cup. In the first round, they beat MK Dons (League Two) 2-0 at Ashton Gate thanks to Jason Knight's header after six minutes and Yu Hirakawa's goal in the 60th minute.

Bristol City have recently drawn two games in a row: 0-0 with Charlton Athletic and 1-1 with Derby County. The results have left them ninth in the Championship, just two points off the play-off places.

Despite being underestimated when facing the Premier League team, Bristol City can be confident thanks to a 4-match unbeaten streak away from home, especially after ending last season with 3 consecutive away defeats.
