Bolton Wanderers line-up vs Plymouth Argyle confirmed as five changes from Aston Villa loss

Bolton Wanderers boss Ian Evatt has made five changes to his team to face Plymouth Argyle this afternoon from the side which lost to Aston Villa in midweek.

Bolton have made the trip to Home Park aiming to return to winning ways in the league. Defeat at home to Sheffield Wednesday was suffered last time out in League One, while there was also a midweek loss in the Carabao Cup at the hands of Aston Villa.

The Green Army did the double over the Whites last season with a 3-0 victory at Home Park. This was followed up with a 1-0 win at the University of Bolton Stadium.

Evatt made a total of six changes for the midweek clash against the Villans. He has further rotated his squad this afternoon and opted to make five alterations in personnel from that starting XI.

James Trafford return in place of Joel Dixon as goalkeeper. Vice-captain Gethin Jones also comes back in on the right hand side of the back three to link back up with Ricardo Santos and George Johnston.

In central midfield, Aaron Morley returns to the team to partner Kyle Dempsey. Conor Bradley starts once again at right wing-back, with Jack Iredale's defensive qualities meaning he gets the nod over Declan John on the left.

In the number 10 role, Evatt has opted to go with Kieran Lee. Upfront, Dion Charles is partnered by Elias Kachunga.

On the bench this afternoon for Wanderers are John, MJ Williams, Kieran Sadlier, Amadou Bakayoko, Will Aimson, Dapo Afolayan and George Thomason.
