Bolton preview: Injured trio have a chance of returning
The international break has worked wonders for Bolton's injury list, with three players pushing for a return on Thursday night. Jordi Osei-Tutu, Josh Dacres-Cogley and Will Forrester are all rumoured to be fit enough to at least return to the bench, but all three will be pushing for a start.
Predicted lineup: Sharman-Lowe (GK), Dacres-Cogley, Forino, Johnston, Conway, Simons, Morley, Cozier-Duberry, Taylor, Cissoko, Burstow
Last five results
- Bolton 3-0 Burton
- Bolton 2-1 Peterborough
- Northampton 2-0 Bolton
- Bolton 3-0 Man City u-21s
- Bolton 4-1 Wigan
Player to watch: Mason Burstow
Mason Burstow is the current top goalscorer in League One with seven goals to his name, but the Bolton striker still needs to prove himself in away matches. The Hull City loanee hasn't netted in an away match yet, but if he can start firing on the road, then Bolton will have a brilliant chance of returning to the Championship.
