IAN Evatt has named his starting XI for Wanderers’ League One clash with Wycombe at the UniBol.

The Whites will be looking to bounce back from a frustrating 1-0 defeat at Hartlepool in the Papa John’s Trophy last week.

Meanwhile, the Chairboys held Sunderland to a thrilling 3-3 draw in their last outing thanks to Joe Jacobson’s dramatic late equaliser.

Wanderers have only faced Wycombe three times in their history and have never won in the fixture.

New signing Aaron Morley is unavailable for tonight's fixture.

Gareth Ainsworth’s men ran out 2-0 winners when the sides last met at the UniBol back in February 2020 thanks to Jacobson and an Aristote Nsiala own goal.

The Chairboys recorded a narrow 1-0 victory when the sides met at Adams Park earlier in the season, with Sam Vokes scoring the decisive goal 18 minutes from time.

Here’s how the sides line up.

Bolton: Dixon, Fossey, Santos, Aimson, John, Williams, Lee, Thomason, Bakayoko, Charles, Afolayan

Subs: Hutchinson, Jones, Johnston, Delfouneso, Baptiste, Gordon, Darcy

Wycombe: Stockdale, Grimmer, Jacobson, Stewart, Tafazolli, Vokes, McCleary, Hanlan, Mehmeti, Obita, Scowen

Subs: Przybek, Wheeler, Thompson, Horgan, Leathers, De Barr, Pendlebury
