Match Preview

N'Gog worry for Trotters David N'Gog remains an injury doubt for Bolton ahead of Nottingham Forest's visit to the Reebok Stadium. The French striker continues to struggle with a back strain he aggravated during the pre-season friendly at Portsmouth earlier this month. It means boss Owen Coyle is faced with a choice of two from three in attack and on-loan Arsenal youngster Benik Afobe could push for a start alongside Kevin Davies after replacing Marvin Sordell to good effect in Tuesday's 2-0 win over Derby. Afobe, 19, has caught the eye since joining Wanderers in pre-season and credited the role of recently departed star Robin van Persie in his development at Arsenal. "I was injured for over six months and when he was young at Arsenal he used to get injured quite a lot," he told BBC Radio Manchester. "He told me to keep motivated and he kept asking about my rehab. He always guides me and he was a bit like a big brother to me at Arsenal last season." Elsewhere, Stuart Holden and David Wheater (both knee) remain long-term injury victims. Forest Forest manager Sean O'Driscoll has no new problems ahead of the trip. Daniel Ayala (hip) remains a doubt. The centre-back, signed on a season-long loan deal from Norwich over the summer, missed the home win over Bristol City on the opening day of the npower Championship season and the draw at Huddersfield on Tuesday night. Back-up goalkeeper Karl Darlow will remain sidelined with an ankle injury. Ahead of arguably Forest's toughest game of the season so far, which will be televised on Friday evening, O'Driscoll said: "We've got a short turn-around after playing on Tuesday. "But we'll be trying to replicate what we did against Huddersfield, which might mean that we change personnel or change the structure of the team. "But overall we want to perform like we did on Tuesday night and do that consistently throughout the season."
