Arsenal will rest Thierry Henry and Jens Lehmann but Freddie Ljungberg, Alexander Hleb and Johan Djourou all return to the squad after injury.
William Gallas, Emmanuel Eboue, Mathieu Flamini and Philippe Senderos are out.
Gallas has a thigh injury, Eboue and Flamini ankle problems and Senderos is suspended.
BIG-MATCH FACTS
BOLTON WANDERERS and Arsenal could hardly be more closely matched as they prepare to resume hostilities at the Reebok for the right to host Blackburn in the last 16 at lunchtime on Saturday. That tie, as this replay, will be played out in front of live BBC Match of the Day cameras. Both clubs were in home League action on Sunday. Bolton kicked off first, beat Fulham 2-1, and leapfrogged Arsenal in the Premiership table. The Gunners then defeated Wigan in controversial circumstances to regain fourth spot. Wenger's men had to come from behind at the Emirates to beat the Latics. They also conceded the opening goal to Bolton in the original Cup tie when Kevin Nolan fired the visitors in front in the 50th minute, but the Londoners upped the tempo and equalised through Kolo Toure with 12 minutes remaining.
The Trotters have become something of a bogey side for Arsenal, having lost once to them in eight League and Cup meetings. All four of their victories in that sequence have been at the Reebok. The most recent of those was this seasons League fixture on 25 November when Nicolas Anelka scored twice against his former club in a 3-1 victory.
It's 49 years since Wanderers last won the Cup for the fourth time in their history. Quarter-finalists two years ago, they had to be satisfied with a last 16 berth last year when they were beaten by the eventual runners-up West Ham. Now the Lancashire club are hoping to knock out top flight opposition for the first time since disposing of the Gunners twelve months ago.
ARSENAL travel to the north-west on a 10 match undefeated sequence. They've won seven and drawn three in all competitions since losing 1-0 at Sheffield United on 30 December - their only defeat in 18 League and Cup outings.
This is the 10th time the Gunners and Bolton have been drawn against each other in the oldest, and arguably greatest knock-out competition in world club football, and the third season running. Arsenal were on route to winning the trophy in 2004-05, when they beat Bolton 1-0 in the quarter-finals at the Reebok with a third minute goal from Fredrik Ljungberg. Last season at this same fourth round stage, the Trotters won 1-0 at the Reebok with a score from Stylianos Giannakopoulis six minutes from time.
An Arsenal player has lifted the FA Cup in three of the last five years, and on four occasions in the tenure of Arsene Wenger. They've reached the final in four of their last six attempts, and the semi-final on one of the other two occasions. Only Manchester United have won the Cup more times than Arsenal - United 11, the Gunners 10. </TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>
