Steve Finnan is expected to return from injury to shore up Fulham's defence for the Premiership showdown with Manchester United at Loftus Road tomorrow.
Finnan has been out for three weeks with a medial knee ligament injury. The Republic of Ireland right-back missed Wednesday's shock 2-1 defeat against Switzerland.
Finnan should be joined by centre-half Goma who has also been out for three weeks, with a pulled hamstring.
However, star striker Louis Saha has suffered an injury relapse - after accusing the club of rushing him back too soon. The French forward sustained a hamstring problem against Tottenham on September 11th - and has suffered a complication which will sideline him for another three or four weeks.
Elsewhere, Richard Dunne returns to the Manchester City squad for the first time since falling foul of manager Kevin Keegan's disciplinary code.
The Irish defender has lost 10lb but still may be forced to be content with a bench role against Chelsea at Maine Road tomorrow as City look for their first win in five Premiership outings.
