Ian Evatt on facing Aston Villa, team selection decisions & why game is a 'freebie' for Bolton

Aston Villa Ian Evatt Villa Bolton Bolton Wanderers EPL Wanderers Villans Cameron Archer Jon Dadi Bodvarsson

Bolton Wanderers are preparing to host Aston Villa in the second round of the Carabao Cup.

The Whites host the Villans at the University of Bolton Stadium with the aim of producing an upset and dumping the Premier League side out of the competition. Kick-off is at 7.45pm.

Like Bolton, Villa go into the game on the back of a defeat. Gerrard's side suffered a 3-1 loss at the hands of Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park on Saturday, which leaves them 13th in the Premier League table.
