The Wanderers today left the Reebok Stadium en route to London and were faced with the possibility of facing reigning champions Arsenal in their own backyard without SEVEN first team regulars. Defenders Bruno N'Gotty and Bernard Mendy are definitely out along with midfielders Paul Warhurst, Ricardo Gardner with Kevin Nolan, Anthony Barness and Simon Charlton facing fitness tests.
However, striker Michael Ricketts could return after missing the defeat to Liverpool due to an injury picked up in the fantastic victory away to Manchester United.
