Comeback kings Bolton Wanderers could be without trio for Doncaster Rovers visit
Doncaster Rovers travel to Bolton Wanderers on Tuesday night facing a team that is high on morale after some incredible comebacks of late.
The last two fixtures have seen Wanderers recover from 2-0 half-time deficits to take four points. They remarkably beat Wycombe 3-2 in their last home game with three goals coming after the 88th minute. Then, last Saturday, they defied a two-goal buffer away at Rotherham to earn a share of the spoils.
Steven Schumacher's side are third in League One but are 11 points adrift of second-placed Cardiff and a further four points shy of leaders Lincoln. They are also unbeaten in their last 12 league games ahead of the visit of Rovers. But they'll be without one key player - and perhaps two more.
Winger Corey Blackett-Taylor has picked up a thigh injury and is awaiting scan results so definitely misses out. Skipper Eoin Toal (ankle) and John McAtee (hamstring and illness) are also doubts.
Schumacher said: "Corey definitely won’t be available. He’s actually having a scan as we speak, this afternoon, but he will definitely be out. He felt something at the top of his thigh when he had that shot, went through one on one, so we will see what the scan comes back with and go from there.
“We have got a couple of other niggles as well which means there are a few question marks on the team. Eoin has trained today, so that is a positive, for us and we will see how he responds in the morning but he could potentially be available for us again. Macca has trained Friday, he's trained today, so he will be in consideration."
The two sides played out a 1-1 draw at the Eco-Power Stadium in the reverse fixture, back on New Year’s Day.
