BOLTON boss Sam Allardyce will be without midfielder Gareth Farrelly for the fifth match in a row as Wanderers travel to First Division rivals Crystal Palace.
Farrelly returned to the squad for the game against Charlton at the weekend after a three-match ban, only to be ruled out with a hamstring strain, which will also keep him out of tonight's Selhurst Park clash.
Allardyce will check on skipper Mike Whitlow, who also missed Saturday's Reebok encounter with a groin injury. Striker Eidur Gudjohnsen serves the last of a three-match suspension, while Dean Holden is also ruled out for the second of his four-game ban.
Allardyce has set his players the tall order of winning every remaining Division One game if they are to reach the playoffs and Bolton will be hoping to start that impressive run against a struggling Palace side.
Squad: Jaaskelainen, Bergsson, Fish, Ritchie, Elliott, Johansen, Jensen, Passi, Johnston, Taylor, Holdsworth, Kaprielian, Nolan, Hansen, O'Kane, Banks, Strong Aljofree, Whitlow.
