Fulham manager Roy Hodgson welcomes back captain Danny Murphy and midfielder Jonathan Greening for the Barclays Premier League visit of Manchester City.

Both players were suspended for last night's win over Juventus and Murphy could replace Dickson Etuhu, who picked up a knock in the shock Europa League victory.

Andy Johnson and John Pantsil (both knee) are out, David Elm is a doubt with illness while Clint Dempsey is pushing for a starting place after scoring the winner against Juve.

Manchester City manager Roberto Mancini will be without Wayne Bridge.

The full-back will be sidelined for a month after undergoing a hernia operation and Javier Garrido is favourite to replace him.

Emmanuel Adebayor is absent through suspension while Martin Petrov has a knee injury.

Fulham squad: Schwarzer, Zuberbuhler, Baird, Kelly, Shorey, Stoor, Konchesky, Hangeland, Hughes, Smalling, Gera, Duff, Murphy, Greening, Davies, Etuhu, Riise, Nevland, Elm, Okaka, Zamora, Marsh-Brown.

Manchester City squad: Given, Taylor, Richards, Zabaleta, Onuoha, Toure, Lescott, Boyata, Garrido, Sylvinho, Johnson, Wright-Phillips, Ireland, Vieira, Barry, De Jong, Ibrahim, Tevez, Bellamy, Santa Cruz.
