Aaron Morley is back from a ban as Wanderers make two changes to their starting line-up.
Morley missed Tuesday night’s derby win at Wigan following his red card at Blackpool last Saturday but returns in midfield alongside captain Josh Sheehan.
Carlos Mendes Gomes also earns just a second start of the season as the Whites bid to secure the win that would keep them in the League One play-off places.
George Thomason and Joel Randall revert to the bench where there is also a spot for Kyle Dempsey following his return from injury as the midfielder features for the first time since October.
