Sheffield Wed. vs Bolton Wanderers - Fernando Forestieri remains doubtful for the Owls
Posted Tuesday, January 12, 2016 by PA
Sheffield Wednesday striker Fernando Forestieri remains an injury doubt for the home game against Bolton.
Forestieri missed Saturday's home FA Cup win against Fulham due to a muscle strain and will be monitored, while goalkeeper Keiren Westwood is still struggling with a similar problem so Joe Wildsmith should continue.
Head coach Carlos Carvalhal is expected to ring the changes again with on-loan Norwich striker Gary Hooper, due to return to his parent club on January 17, back in contention.
Right-back Jack Hunt and midfielder Sam Hutchinson could also return as Wednesday chase their fifth win in six games in all competitions.
Bolton manager Neil Lennon is preparing as if Mark Davies and Zach Clough will again be unavailable.
Cash-strapped Wanderers have accepted bids for Davies, from Wednesday, and for Clough, from Bristol City, and neither player was risked in Saturday's FA Cup third-round tie with Eastleigh while their futures remain uncertain.
Lennon expects to have a similar squad to select from, so the Northern Irishman will once more be without Emile Heskey (calf), Max Clayton (hamstring) and Prince Gouano (knock).
There are likely to be changes from the side which were held to a 1-1 draw by non-League Eastleigh on a muddy pitch on Saturday, with former Real Madrid youth defender Derik Osede among those under consideration.
