SUNDERLAND boss Roy Keane is set to have star striker Kenwyne Jones available for his side's clash with West Ham tomorrow.

The Trinidad and Tobago star (pictured) missed last week's Premier League win over Aston Villa because of a virus.

But the 23-year-old, the Black Cats top scorer this season with five goals, is expected to make a recovery in time to face the Irons.

Keane told the Sunderland Echo: "Kenwyne was hit pretty hard by the virus last Friday but seems fine now.

"He trained Tuesday and has been back since then but we are just going to keep an eye on him.

"Hopefully, though, he should be okay for the weekend."

However, international team mate Carlos Edwards is a doubt with a groin problem. The winger is rated as 50-50.

Meanwhile, Danny Collins (dead leg) and Nyron Nosworthy (groin) both picked up knocks in the game at Villa Park but have been passed fit, although Dickson Etuhu (knee) is missing.

Sunderland (from): Gordon, Fulop, Bardsley, Collins, McShane, Evans, Higginbotham, Harte, Whitehead, Reid, Leadbitter, Edwards, Miller, Richardson, O'Donovan, Jones, Waghorn, Murphy, Stokes, Chopra, Prica.
