WEST Ham United pair James Collins and Nigel Quashie will make their long-awaited returns from injury in a specially-arranged friendly match this afternoon.
The duo are both set to start in a behind-closed-doors fixture against an un-named Championship club today.
Wales defender Collins, who turns 25 on Saturday, has been out of action since tearing knee ligaments in a reserve match against Portsmouth in January.
30-year-old midfielder Quashie, meanwhile, has not made a first team appearance since injuring his foot in the 4-3 Premier League defeat to Tottenham Hotspur on March 4, 2007.
