Upson set for Hammers return

Matthew Upson is set to return to the West Ham side for tomorrow’s Barclays Premier League clash at struggling Bolton after recovering from a calf injury.

Upson has been sidelined for over a month and was forced to miss England’s defeat to France but has been training all week and is likely to slot straight back into the West Ham defence.

Right-back Lucas Neill is a doubt after turning his ankle in Tuesday’s 1-0 defeat to Portsmouth, with both Jonathan Spector or John Pantsil ready to fill in.

Mark Noble is struggling with a hamstring strain but Wales Under-21 international Jack Collison is in line to make his first senior start for West Ham.

Team (from): Green, Walker, Neill, Pantsil, Spector, Upson, Ferdinand, Tomkins, McCartney, Solano, Collison, Boa Morte, Mullins, Parker, Noble, Collison, Ashton, Cole, Zamora, Sears.
