Bolton Wanderers vs Fulham - Josh Vela faces a late fitness test for Bolton



Posted Friday, December 18, 2015 by PA

Bolton will give Josh Vela a late fitness test prior to Fulham's visit.

The midfielder avoided any serious damage to his knee after coming off on a stretcher against Charlton on Tuesday and could even feature four days later for bottom-of-the-table Wanderers.

Zach Clough played 89 minutes on his return from a shoulder injury on Tuesday and the striker should start again after a couple of days' rest.

Neil Lennon has no new injury or suspension concerns, although Wellington Silva (hamstring) and Max Clayton (ankle) are long-term absentees.

Fulham hope to have midfielder Scott Parker back in contention.

The 35-year-old has resumed training after missing the midweek defeat to Ipswich as a precaution following his return to fitness from an ankle injury.

The Cottagers are still searching for a new manager and are without a win in six matches, with senior coach Stuart Gray again set to be in charge of the first-team at the Macron Stadium.

Defender Jack Grimmer has stepped up his recovery from an ankle injury, but midfielder Ryan Tunnicliffe (hamstring) remains sidelined.
