Everton duo ready to return

Everton duo Jack Rodwell and Leon Osman are ready to return from injury against Queens Park Rangers on Saturday.

The pair had been sidelined through injury since a 2-1 defeat at home to Bolton Wanderers in early January.

Rodwell had been suffering with a hamstring injury, while Osman was struggling with a knee problem.

Both players featured for the reserves in Tuesday's 2-2 draw with Bolton.
