Fulham and Wolverhampton Wanderers have been in poor form. Both sides are without a win from their last five games…
Super Eagles and Fulham winger Samuel Chukwueze has been passed fit to play against Wolverhampton Wanderers at Craven Cottage tomorrow, Soccernet.ng reports.
The 26-year-old has played 63 minutes of football for the Cottagers since joining from AC Milan on loan during the summer transfer window.
While he didn't play for Lesotho, Chukwueze played 45 minutes in Nigeria's 4-0 win over Benin, providing two assists for Victor Osimhen.
Since then, he hasn't played for Marco Silva's side due to a calf problem. In that time, Fulham didn't win any games.

Chukwueze could feature for Fulham against Wolves
Fulham head coach Marco Silva, in his pre-match presser ahead of their game against Vitor Pereira's side, mentioned his side has a number of players back who weren't present in their loss to Newcastle United.
“Things look better,” the Portuguese tactician said in quotes revealed by Ben Dinnery.
“Smith Rowe and Harry Wilson are in contention. Rodrigo Muniz and Samuel Chukwueze [are also] in contention.
“Raul Jimenez is a doubt, but Joachim Andersen is in. Jedi [Antonee Robinson] is out.
“After the Cup game, things start to look a bit better. It's been completely different the last two days.
“Andersen is going to be in, definitely – Robinson is still out. Emile Smith Rowe is going to be in contention as well, and Harry Wilson.'
“I have to make a decision [on Muniz] because, as you know, four-five weeks out. But now, in this moment, he has some good days with us.
“He's getting better.' ‘Raul is still a doubt, we are going to decide with him tomorrow morning. He has some problems, the same problems he had against Villa,” the former Watford manager concluded.
