Injury worries mount for Bolton boss Parkinson
Posted Friday, February 08, 2019 by PA
Bolton manager Phil Parkinson has several injury problems to deal with ahead of the game with Preston.
Jack Hobbs faces a spell on the sidelines with an Achilles problem which is currently keeping fellow defender Mark Beevers out of action.
Full-back Andy Taylor is also likely to miss Saturday’s game through injury, although goalkeeper Ben Alnwick could return after a back problem.
Pawel Olkowski (calf), Joe Williams (thigh) and Yanic Wildschut (ankle) all remain sidelined.
Preston manager Alex Neil could name the same side for the fourth game in succession.
Louis Moult and Callum Robinson (both hamstring) and Billy Bodin and Josh Harrop (both ACL) are the only players who are definitely unavailable.
However, recent signing Connor Ripley suffered an ankle injury in a practice match this week and could be ruled out for some time.
Neil fears that the 25-year-old goalkeeper has snapped a ligament but the full extent of the injury will be known after a scan.
