Cahill ready for reserves run-out

The Bolton centre-back has not played a competitive match since January 30 after he was diagnosed with the problem, which was initially feared would keep him out for the season. However, those fears were quickly allayed after further examination and the 24-year-old's recovery has been so quick he was an unused substitute for Saturday's defeat at Everton. Cahill is joined in the side by fellow first-team squad members Ali-Al Habsi, Mark Davies, Danny Shittu and Ricardo Vaz Te.
