Lloyd Isgrove is edging closer to a first team return for Bolton Wanderers while Jon Dadi Bodvarsson is back available for the clash against Peterborough United.
Winger Isgrove has been missing since November owing to hamstring problems and more recently a foot issue. Striker Bodvarsson has been out recently with a hamstring problem.
But Bodvarsson returned to full training this week and is back available for the Whites' clash against Posh. Isgrove meanwhile is not yet ready to return but is getting closer.

Evatt said: “Jon is back, so another headache. We have a fully fit squad other than Lloyd, who is edging closer but not really ready yet.
“It’s just one of those annoying ones which we’ve had scanned, there’s no real issue there, it’s just a bit of inflammation and a tiny bit of fluid caused by that inflammation that just takes time to settle down.
“It’s not a long term issue, it’s just one of those nagging annoying ones that will constantly nip away at you until it completely settles down and hopefully now the grass and the ground is getting bit softer and that impact isn’t the same, that will settle really quickly.”
Wanderers face a Peterborough side this weekend which have lost their last five games in all competitions. Should Wanderers pick up three points, it will help finish off a good week for the club, but Evatt is aware of how difficult a test it will be.
Evatt said: “It was important to have a good week because it would define whether it had been a decent start or a good one. We have had some pretty tough fixtures and the way the league is stacking up suggests that.
“But we have to concentrate on ourselves and our own performances and the way we played Tuesday was excellent.
“That is done now, on to the next one on Saturday.
“They are a dangerous team – the results suggest that, won four, lost four, they are not in it to draw. They are capable of walloping you but also throwing games open and losing them as well.
“They are really dangerous. Very good in transition, commit loads of bodies forward and so it will be a challenging game."
