Both teams have made respectable starts to their season, so will be looking to continue this with a cup win on Tuesday.
The Trotters are currently sat in third place in League One, after drawing away from home to a strong Ipswich side. They registered their first win of the campaign on Saturday afternoon in front of their home fans, winning by three goals to nil against a helpless Wycombe Wanderers.
Ian Evatt's men will look to keep up a winning streak against the visitors after previously beating them twice with a combined score of 3-0.
Salford, who are playing in the fourth tier at the moment, are sat in seventh just two points off the top.
They kick-started their season with an excellent 2-0 victory over Mansfield Town, and drew 1-1 at the City ground against Swindon on the weekend, despite their opponents having just 10 men for the majority of the match.
They will be looking to get back to winning ways this week, but their job won't be easy in the slightest, as the whites are unbeaten in six at home.

Team news
Bolton
Lloyd Isgrove continues his spell on the sidelines with a long-term knee injury, and the Welshman will not be available for Tuesday's game.
After bagging two goals last time out, Kyle Dempsey will look to retain his place in the starting lineup, and hopefully help his team to a victory once more.
Salford
22-year-old Elliot Simoes will have to wait a little longer for his Salford City debut as he remains out with a muscle problem.
Second-choice goalkeeper Joel Torrance could replace Tom King between the sticks, with the cup competition possibly swaying Neil Wood's generosity in the right direction for the youngster.

Key Players
Aaron Morley
The 22-year-old is definitely one to watch. Since signing in January from Rochdale, his range of passing and occasional eye for goal has been extremely impressive, and after scoring on the weekend in a convincing 3-0 win, he will be the danger man on Tuesday.
Brandon Thomas Asante
The English youngster will cause problems against Bolton for sure. With a goal and assist already to his name this campaign, and 11 league goals last season, Salford's number 10 is a key asset to the League Two outfit.
