Bolton Wanderers will be without Dapo Afolayan for their game against Cheltenham Town this weekend.
The attacker is suspended after picking up his fifth yellow card of the season last night, as per a report by the Manchester Evening News.
Afolayan, 24, helped Bolton beat Doncaster Rovers 3-0.
However, he will have to watch from the stands on Saturday when Michael Duff’s side come to town.

‘He’s upset’…
The Trotters’ boss, Ian Evatt, has said: “He’s upset because three out of the five yellow cards he’s received we feel have been unjust.
“Tonight he won the ball and his momentum took him into the opponent and it’s never a yellow card. There’s frustration because he’s a big, big player for us and we’re going to miss him.”
Story so far
Afolayan has been a hit since moving to the University of Bolton Stadium and is the club’s top scorer this season.
He joined Bolton on loan from West Ham United last term and made the move permanent over the summer after their promotion from League Two.
The former England C international has scored nine goals in all competitions in this campaign and is earning himself a decent reputation.
