Norwich manager Chris Hughton will check on the fitness of defender Russell Martin ahead of tomorrow's Barclays Premier League visit of West Ham.

Martin pulled out of the Scotland squad with an ankle injury sustained against Tottenham two weeks ago but is back in training and should be available.

Hughton will also wait on the recovery of forward Simeon Jackson who had a punishing travel itinerary over the international break with Canada.

Meanwhile, long-term injury victims, midfielder Elliott Bennett and fullback Stephen Whittaker also report good progress.

Provisional squad: Ruddy, R Martin, Bassong, Barnett, Garrido, Snodgrass, Howson, Johnson, Pilkington, Jackson, Holt, Surman, Hoolahan, Morison, Tierney, Tettey, R Bennett, C Martin, Turner, Fox, Lappin, Kane.
