Bolton manager Sam Allardyce is set to name an unchanged side against Reading on Saturday.
Allardyce was pleased at the way his team battled in midweek when they lost narrowly to Chelsea.
Quinton Fortune is likely to stay sidelined with an Achilles problem while Ricardo Gardner could return to the squad for the first time in seven months following a knee injury.
Winger Glen Little faces a late fitness test on a hamstring problem.
Midfielder Steve Sidwell (hip) is expected to retain his place in the starting line-up but winger Bobby Convey will be out for another three weeks following a clean-up operation on a knee injury.
Dave Kitson (hamstring), Peter Mate (knee) and Aaron Brown (ankle) remain unavailable and although John Halls has recovered from an Achilles problem he is not in the squad.
