Nolan back for Trotters

Captain Kevin Nolan will return to lead relegation threatened Bolton in their crucial Barclays Premier League home game against West Ham tomorrow.

The midfielder has missed Bolton’s last two matches through a combination of injury and suspension, during which time Gary Megson’s side have conceded seven goals and seen their winless run extend to eight games.

Ivan Campo is also pushing for a recall to the starting line-up but Joey O’Brien is likely to be ruled out with a hamstring injury and joins long-term absentees Ricardo Gardner, Nicky Hunt and Jussi Jaaskelainen on the sidelines.

Team (from): Al Habsi, Steinsson, Cahill, A O’Brien, Taylor, Guthrie, McCann, Nolan, Davies, Helguson, Diouf, Campo, Cohen, Samuel, Giannakopoulos, Rasiak, Alonso, Fojut, Walker.
