Fulham (from):
Keller, Niemi, Warner,
Stalteri, Volz, Hughes, Hangeland, Bocanegra, Konchesky,
Davies, Bullard, Murphy, Andreasen, Bouazza, Dempsey,
McBride, Healy, Kamara, Nevland, Johnson.
Fulham striker Jari Litmanen is fit but will not participate in Saturday's clash.
Litmanen has recovered from the head injury sustained in training last week but is short on match fitness and has been ruled out of the Craven Cottage showdown.
Otherwise Fulham are at full strength and boss Roy Hodgson could give Diomansy Kamara a start following his heroics against Manchester City.
Man City (from):
Taylor, Doyle,
Kelly, Ridgewell, Jaidi, Murphy, Queudrue,
Muamba, Nafti, Johnson, Kapo, Larsson,
Forssell, McFadden, O'Connor, Zarate, Jerome, McSheffrey.
Birmingham will give late fitness tests to right-back Stephen Kelly and midfielder Mehdi Nafti before finalising the team for Saturday's crucial showdown with relegation rivals Fulham at Craven Cottage.
Kelly, who is an ever present this season, has a knee problem while Nafti is battling to shake off a thigh strain.
Former Fulham defender Frank Queudrue is on standby to take over from Kelly.
Club captain Damien Johnson is available to return in midfield after completing the three-match ban he picked up after being sent off at Wigan last month.
Birmingham, who could be relegated if they lose, have not won an away game since Alex McLeish's first match in charge at Tottenham in December.
