MIDDLESBROUGH goalkeeper Brad Jones is back in training after dislocating a finger in the pre-match warm up at Liverpool last weekend.
However, the Australian international is still recovering from minor ligament damage and will not be considered for tomorrow's Premier League clash against Stoke at the Riverside.
Ross Turnbull, who replaced Jones at the last minute at Anfield, is expected to remain in goal, while England Under-19 international keeper Jason Steele has been added to manager Gareth Southgate's squad.
Boro defenders David Wheater and Andrew Taylor, both of whom picked up knocks at Liverpool, are fit again and are included in the squad, meaning Julio Arca (ankle) is their only other absentee.
Team (from): Turnbull, Steele, Wheater, Hoyte, Taylor, Huth, Pogatetz, Riggott, Williams, Aliadiere, Emnes, Digard, O'Neil, Shawky, Downing, Johnson, Mido, Alves, Tuncay.
