Bolton Wanderers boss Owen Coyle hopes to call on Ivan Klasnic for their trip to Arsenal.
Klasnic, who sealed a permanent move from Nantes in the summer, missed the draw with Birmingham because of a thigh injury.
Coyle said: "What we have to recognise is that Ivan missed a lot of pre-season because of a dispute with his club.
"So we do not want to rush him back until we make sure he is right. But if he is able to train today and tomorrow he will put himself in contention."
