Hull City boss Steve Bruce has revealed that Michael Dawson, Nikica Jelavic and Allan McGregor should all be fit for his side's Premier League clash against Tottenham Hotspur.
McGregor has been out of action since September with a shoulder injury, while Jelavic and Dawson have both been sidelined for a month with knee and ankle problems.
However, the trio should all return at White Hart Lane, barring any further setbacks, which Bruce has admitted will be a major boost for his side.
Bruce told the club's official website: "Dawson, Jelavic and McGregor have trained all week, so unless something untoward happens I expect them to be in contention to start.
"Jelavic has done remarkably well to be back in contention and even if we'd had a game last weekend I think he would have been in contention. He's been determined to get back involved and he's been doing 12-hour days to get himself back in.
"It's been the same with Dawson too. He was just playing the way we expect him to when he got injured against Arsenal. It's going to be good to see them back because the spine of your team is vitally important and with their Premier League experience, they can be vital for us."
Hull are 15th in the Premier League ahead of their clash against Spurs on Sunday.
