Fulham XI vs Ipswich: Confirmed team news, predicted lineup, latest injuries for Carabao Cup match

Fulham quartet Alphonse Areola, Kenny Tete, Mario Lemina and Ola Aina are all pushing to make their debuts against Ipswich Town on Wednesday.

The four summer signings missed Saturday’s opening Premier League defeat to Arsenal as they have only just moved to Craven Cottage.

They are, however, hoping to feature at League One Ipswich in the Carabao Cup on Wednesday and striker Aleksandar Mitrovic and midfielder Andre-Frank Zambo Anguissa, who both played just under 30 minutes off the bench at the weekend, are likely to play some part too.

“This game [against Arsenal] came too early for those players - Alphonse [Areola], Lemina, the two boys [Kenny Tete & Ola Aina] we literally just signed,” said Fulham head coach Scott Parker.

“They probably fit into the same category as Mitro. I’m pleased that he got 30 minutes, along with Anguissa, and on Wednesday we can get some more minutes into these players.”
