Bolton utility player Henrik Pedersen is doubtful for the home match against Fulham on Sunday.

The Dane suffered a gashed heel in the UEFA Cup defeat by Marseille last night - his first game in four months following an Achilles injury.

Manager Sam Allardyce could be tempted to freshen things up in an attempt to get back to winning ways.

Meanwhile, midfielder Papa Bouba Diop is back in the Fulham squad for the game after returning from African Nations Cup duty with Senegal.

Bouba Diop is the only addition to the squad which crushed West Bromwich Albion 6-1 in Fulham's last Premiership match a fortnight ago.

Fulham boss Chris Coleman has plenty of options up front with Collins John, Brian McBride, Heidar Helguson and Tomasz Radzinski competing for starting places.

Provisional Bolton squad: Jaaskelainen, O'Brien, Hunt, Ben Haim, N'Gotty, Jaidi, Gardner, Giannakopoulos, Okocha, Nakata, Faye, Nolan, Davies, Borgetti, Vaz Te, Pedersen, Walker.

Provisional Fulham squad: Niemi, Volz, Bocanegra, Knight, Bridge, Malbranque, Elliott, Radzinski, Boa Morte, Helguson, McBride, Warner, Legwinski, Papa Diop, John, Goma, N Jensen.
