Bolton Wanderers lineup confirmed vs Fleetwood Town as two changes made from Cheltenham Town win

Bolton Wanderers boss Ian Evatt has made two changes to his side to take on Fleetwood Town today from the side which beat Cheltenham Town last weekend.

Wanderers are at the University of Bolton Stadium for one final time this season and seeking to make it a top 10 finish in a successful campaign back in the third tier of English football after promotion last summer.

The Whites ultimately fell short in a late charge for the play-offs, but have had an impressive second half of the season and are seven unbeaten going into this afternoon's encounter, with the aim of a genuine promotion push next campaign.

The Cod Army are outside the relegation zone on goal difference alone ahead of Gillingham as the battle to stay up will go down to the final day.

Crainey's men take on Wanderers while the Gills host automatic promotion chasing Rotherham United on the last day of the season - and will stay up as long as they match or better the Kent side's result.

And for the clash against Fleetwood, Wanderers boss Evatt has made two changes for the clash against the Cod Army.

Evatt has picked a strong team and James Trafford plays the final match of his loan spell from Manchester City as goalkeeper.

The defence is unchanged with a potential back three of Gethin Jones, Will Aimson and George Johnston, with Kieran Sadlier and Declan John as the wing-backs.

In central midfield with MJ Williams out, George Thomason line ups alongside Aaron Morley with Dapo Afolayan in the number 10 role, if Wanderers do play a back three.

And Dion Charles is partnered by Amadou Bakayoko in the strike pairing.

On the bench this afternoon for Wanderers are Joel Dixon, Jon Dadi Bodvarsson, Xavier Amaechi, Elias Kachunga, Alex Baptiste, Liam Gordon and youngster Max Conway.
