GAEL Givet is expected to miss tomorrow's Premier League trip to Fulham after limping out of Sunday's victory at Bolton Wanderers.

The French left back picked up a dead leg early in the game at the Reebok Stadium and limped through much of the first half before being substituted before the interval.

The man who replaced him, Lars Jacobsen, could now be in contention to start at right back at Fulham with Pascal Chimbonda switching to left back - as he did at the Reebok.

Givet, however, is expected to have recovered in time for Saturday's home game against Stoke City should he miss out tomorrow.
