Bolton have Josh Vela and Max Clayton back in the mix, with both having featured in Tuesday's 1-0 Checkatrade Trophy loss at Cheltenham.

Midfielder Vela had missed the previous game, the 1-0 FA Cup win over Grimsby on Saturday, through suspension, while striker Clayton's run-out from the bench against Cheltenham marked his return to first-team action after a year out through injury.
