Bolton Wanderers lineup vs Burton Albion confirmed as Jon Dadi Bodvarsson decision made

Bolton Wanderers boss Ian Evatt has made four changes to his side to take on Burton Albion this evening.

Wanderers are back on the road for the second time in the space of four days and travel to Staffordshire to play the Brewers.

In a match that ought to have taken place over the festive period but was shelved due to positive coronavirus tests in both camps, Wanderers will travel to the Pirelli Stadium for a 7.45pm kick-off.

Bolton are seven games unbeaten in the third tier of English football and were in action on Saturday when they secured an impressive 3-2 victory over Oxford United, coming from behind twice in the process.

And after the win at the Kassam Stadium, Wanderers boss Evatt has made four changes from that team.

James Trafford continues as goalkeeper, while the back three is Will Aimson, captain Ricardo Almeida Santos and George Johnston, with Gethin Jones not in the matchday squad.

Marlon Fossey and Declan John are anticipated to continue as wing-backs.

Kieran Lee is sidelined so Kyle Dempsey is brought into the starting XI alongside MJ Williams and Kieran Sadlier in the Wanderers engine room, the latter making his first start for Bolton.

And upfront, Evatt has opted to name Jon Dadi Bodvarsson and Amadou Bakayoko as this evening's strike partnership.

On the bench this evening for Wanderers are Dion Charles, Xavier Amaechi, Aaron Morley, Dapo Afolayan, George Thomason, Alex Baptiste and Liam Gordon.
