Bolton Wanderers lineup vs Bradford City confirmed: one change made in attacking areas

Bolton Wanderers boss Ian Evatt has made one change to his team to take on Bradford City today.

The Trotters return to action this afternoon in the latest match in their busy League Two fixture schedule.

They have headed to West Yorkshire and Valley Parade to take on the Bantams in what is arguably the division's biggest two clubs going head to head.

And Wanderers head into the encounter in the play-offs, aiming to win their seventh game on the trot and also go nine matches unbeaten.

They face a Bradford side in excellent recent form too, with the Bantams having won their last five games on the spin themselves.

Bolton were last in action on Tuesday night when they picked up a 2-0 win on the road against Oldham Athletic.

And Evatt has made one change from the side which started that encounter.

Wanderers have kept five clean sheets in their last six games and the goalkeeper of Matt Gilks and back four of Gethin Jones, Ricardo Almeida Santos, Alex Baptiste and Declan John continues once more.

The central midfield duo of Kieran Lee and MJ Williams also carries on in the middle of the park.

Eoin Doyle also continues in the number nine role, with skipper Antoni Sarcevic lining up behind him.

But there is a change on the flanks as Lloyd Isgrove, who was an unused substitute against Oldham, comes in to replace Nathan Delfouneso and will line up along with Oladapo Afolayan.

On the bench today for Bolton are Delfouneso, Marcus Maddison, Andrew Tutte, Shaun Miller, Harry Brockbank, Arthur Gnahoua and George Thomason.
