Jonny Evans will return to Sunderland's squad for Saturday's Reebok Stadium clash with Bolton after missing two games with a hamstring injury.The centre-back, on loan from Manchester United, has shaken off the knock and could go straight into the starting line-up.

Daryl Murphy (hamstring) is a doubt while Dickson Etuhu (knee) and Phil Bardsley (knee) are ruled out. Dwight Yorke and Ross Wallace come back into contention.

Kick-off is at 5.15pm.

Sunderland (from): Gordon, Fulop, Whitehead, Harte, Nosworthy, McShane, Evans, Higginbotham, Collins, Wallace, O'Donovan, Reid, Yorke, Leadbitter, Miller, Richardson, Edwards, Jones, Chopra, Stokes, Prica, Waghorn.
