Ian Evatt hopes to have defender George Johnston back available for Bolton Wanderers' trip to Oxford United this weekend and overcome the sickness which kept him out of the win over Charlton Athletic.
Johnston was absent from the matchday squad for the 2-1 victory over the Addicks last night at the University of Bolton Stadium.
Dion Charles put Wanderers in front early on after getting the better of Akin Famewo and rounding Craig MacGillivray to give the hosts the lead.

Aimson moved across the back three to take the left-sided spot usually filled by the former Wigan Athletic loanee as he was absent due to illness.
Speaking after the game, Evatt confirmed Johnston had caught a sickness bug which meant he was unable to keep any food down and ensured he would not be selected against the Addicks.
But having caught it on the day of the game, Evatt is hopeful that Johnston will be back available when Wanderers head to the Kassam Stadium to take on the U's on Saturday afternoon.
Evatt said: “I think he’ll be okay. I think these sickness bugs are normally 24 hour things so unfortunately for him, he caught it on the day of the game, but I would think he’ll be okay for Saturday.
“He’s just had some sickness overnight and today. He’s suffered with a sickness bug.
"We don’t think it’s going to be a long one but he’s not been able
