The first day of a gameweek that stretches over five successive days gets underway shortly at Molineux. Follow all the day’s action with us in our Dugout Discussion chatroom.

So Mick McCarthy’s side host a Liverpool team looking to avenge the defeat from their previous league meeting in today’s early game, and the team sheets are in…

Wolves XI: Hennessey, Zubar, Stearman, Berra, Ward, Jarvis, Henry, Milijas, Hunt, Doyle, Fletcher

Liverpool XI: Reina, Kelly, Skrtel, Agger, Johnson, Kuyt, Lucas, Poulsen, Meireles, Maxi, Torres

Both sides line-up as expected, with only Christian Poulsen starting ahead of Jay Spearing for the visitors.

Following that we have a colossal seven fixtures this afternoon and evening. At 3pm Arsenal host Wigan, Blackpool kick-off their home double against Darren Bentless Sunderland, West Ham travel to Steven Pienaarless Everton, Fulham welcome the visit of Stoke, Man United take on Birmingham and Spurs are up at Newcastle.

Then, this evening, big-spenders Man City face big-spenders Aston Villa at Villa Park.

Akers Richard or Akers, as he is known, has been regularly haunting this site since July 2008. He is young and foolish, take what he says with a pinch of salt. Follow them on Twitter

      Man Utd goal: Game over at Old Trafford? It certainly looks that way. Dimitar Berbatov slides in to win back possession for United, and Wayne Rooney sends over a peach of a low cross between Ben Foster and his Birmingham defence, which finds Ryan Giggs waiting at the back post to turn the ball home.

    If you ever want a 50/50 choice ask me and choose the opposite.

    I chose Rooney ahead of Berba and chose Varney ahead of DJ.

    Let's hope Fergie has one of his panic attacks and drops Berbatov midweek.... usually does when Berbatov is on fire and buzzing.

          I imagine emails wont be needed. Unlike Carroll's infamous non-assist vs Wham where a def changed the direction of the ball, Giggs tapped in from a clean Rooney cross. No touches from Defs, no deflections, no debate. So FPL give it to Berb...idiots
