Sky Sports brings you their first Super Sunday of the season and boy oh boy isn’t it …well it’s alright. Waking you up on this lazy Sunday afternoon will be the scotch broth of Owen Coyle and Alex McCleish going toe to toe as Birmingham make their visit to the Reebok Stadium to face off against Bolton.
We see an unchanged eleven from their successful trip to West Ham last week for Bolton, while Birmingham look like reverting to a 4-5-1 formation this afternoon with Lee Bowyer coming in for Nikola Zigic.
Bolton XI: Jaaskelainen; Steinsson, Cahill, Knight, Robinson; Lee, Holden, Muamba, Petrov; Elmander, Kevin Davies
Birmingham XI: Foster; Carr, Johnson, Dann, Ridgewell; Larsson, Gardner, Ferguson, McFadden, Bowyer; Jerome
As the clock ticks down on this fixture, away from your television screens arguably the two “best” matches of the day will kick-off. Roberto Mancini will take his Manchester City side to Sunderland this afternoon as Roy Hodgson stays a little closer to home with the visit of West Brom….
Closing out the gameweek will be a fixture that could throw up any kind of result right now. After a grand start under Kevin MacDonald results have been in a swift decline for Aston Villa, meanwhile Everton have been getting off their their usual early season stutters. Which team will be looking to break the mould before we head off into the international break?
Stay with us through the day to find out. The Dugout Discussion is already open awaiting your entry for some daily chatter if you are so inclined.
