Bolton Wanderers boss Ian Evatt has made three changes to his side to take on Fleetwood Town this afternoon from last weekend's draw against Cambridge United.
Wanderers make the trip to the Fylde Coast this afternoon eyeing victory against the Cod Army. The Whites sit seventh in the table and just outside the play-offs on goal difference in a tight battle in the top half of the standings.
Scott Brown's Fleetwood meanwhile sit 16th in the table and are eight points clear of the drop zone. They are unbeaten in their last four league games and will be aiming to extend that run when they take on Wanderers.

Wanderers are aiming to win for the first time in three games this afternoon. Evatt has opted to make three changes from last weekend's draw against the U's.
James Trafford continues as goalkeeper, while the back three is poised to line up once again as Gethin Jones, Ricardo Santos and George Johnston. The wing-backs sees Conor Bradley on the right and Owen Beck on the left, making his first League One start for the club.
In central midfield with Kyle Dempsey suspended, George Thomason comes in to replace him in the middle of the park, having served his own suspension last weekend when he missed the trip to Cambridge United. Aaron Morley starts alongside him.
Dapo Afolayan starts in the number 10 role. Upfront, with Amadou Bakayoko on international duty with Sierra Leone, Dion Charles is partnered upfront by Elias Kachunga.
On the bench this afternoon for the Whites are Declan John, MJ Williams, Kieran Sadlier, Jon Dadi Bodvarsson, Josh Sheehan, Jack Iredale and Eoin Toal.
