Trinidad and Tobago will likely have the services of their captain Kenwyne Jones for a pair of crucial 2014 World Cup qualifiers home and away against Guyana on November 11 and 15.
Jones missed T&T's last two qualifiers—a 2-1 loss away to Bermuda and a 4-0 win over Barbados in Port of Spain—due to injury.
Yesterday, his manager at English Premiership club Stoke City indicated that the striker had recovered from a recent hamstring injury.
Tony Pulis indicated that Jones will be in contention for a place in Stoke's starting line-up when they face Maccabi Tel Aviv in their latest Europa League Group E at the Britannia Stadium today.
The £8 million frontman was eased back into the first team picture for last Saturday's 2-0 victory over Fulham when he was an unused substitute, but now he could make his comeback in the Europa League tie against Maccabi.
Jones is one of a number of players who will be hoping for a call-up as the Stoke manager considers changes for the game with the Israeli side, while he has also hinted that Danny Higginbotham may have some involvement after his long lay-off.
But Pulis stressed: "We will be putting out a strong side because winning our home games in this group is the key to us qualifying for the next stage. But it's the squad that will make us successful so we need to change things around a bit."
