But after back-to-back Premier League victories against Hull and Coventry, Arbeloa insists some of his first-choice players will start as Fulham look to book a quarter-final place by ending a 21-year hoodoo against Palace at home.
And that means some squad players – including Emile Smith Rowe – might have to continue being patient on the sidelines.
