Preview: Wolverhampton Wanderers vs. Bolton Wanderers

Wolves vs. Bolton

Wolverhampton Wanderers will be aiming to bounce back from their defeat at Huddersfield Town on Saturday with a home triumph over Bolton Wanderers on Tuesday.

The defeat saw Wolves slip to fifth place in the Championship table with 19 points from 11 matches, just three points behind leaders Leicester City.

Their opponents, Bolton, are struggling in 16th, having picked up 14 points from 11 matches, and are without a manager at the moment.

However, the Trotters came from behind to defeat Bristol City 3-2 at home on Saturday under caretaker manager Jimmy Phillips, and will head into the game at Molineux with confidence.

Bolton are unlikely to change their lineup from that game, while Wolves could deploy David Edwards in place of David Davis in midfield.
