Duff could figure in the first team soon, and Michael Owen could also be back for their busy Christmas and New Year holiday period.Sam Allardyce: "After the way we came back on Saturday I feel great.
"Now we are looking for more good news by getting some players back for Saturday's game with Fulham at Craven Cottage.
"I have arranged a behind-closed doors game this week when we are hoping that the likes of Damien Duff, Abdoulaye Faye, Claudio Cacapa and Shola Ameobi will all play.
"Michael Owen will probably not play in it but we are expecting him back with the rest of the first-team squad nearer the end of the week.
"And while Saturday will probably come too early for him he should certainly be back for the game with Derby County at St James's Park a week on Sunday."
