Melchiot banned

Wigan will be without captain Mario Melchiot for Sunday’s Barclays Premier League clash at Bolton as the defender starts a three-game ban.

Melchiot was dismissed late on in last Saturday’s 1-1 draw at home to Manchester City for a poor challenge on Stephen Ireland.

Striker Emile Heskey should be fit despite limping off early in the second half against City with a hamstring strain.

Team (from): Kirkland, Granqvist, Bramble, Kilbane, Cotterill, Sibierski, Landzaat, Scharner, Skoko, Brown, Taylor, Bent, Heskey, Valencia, Aghahowa, Pollitt, Hall, Olembe.
