FULHAM'S preparations for Saturday's trip to Wigan have been dealt a blow after Aaron Hughes was ruled out with a thigh injury.

The Northern Irish defender, who has only just returned from a groin problem, faces a couple of weeks on the sidelines after getting crocked in last weekend's defeat to Everton.

Boss Martin Jol is also sweating on the fitness of Philippe Senderos , who has a thigh injury, while Orlando Sa (hamstring) is definitely out.

However, Simon Davies should be back in contention by the end of November as he steps up his rehabilitation following a knee problem.
