We have five Premier League fixtures about to get under-way, so the Dugout Discussion chatroom has been opened for you to absorb all the action as it unfolds.

The team news from all the 3pm games is in, and here are the all-important line-ups…

Aston Villa XI: Friedel, Walker, Collins, Dunne, Luke Young, Downing, Reo-Coker, Petrov, Ashley Young, Bent, Heskey

Wigan XI: Al Habsi, Alcaraz, Boyce, Gary Caldwell, Figueroa, Cleverley, McCarthy, Watson, N’Zogbia, Moses, Rodallega

Villa can call upon the services of Richard Dunne and Emile Heskey despite being slight doubts earlier in the week. The visitors can also breathe a sigh of relief as Charles N’Zogbia starts.

Bolton XI: Jaaskelainen, Steinsson, Knight, Cahill, Robinson, Chung-Yong, Muamba, Elmander, Taylor, K Davies, Sturridge

Sunderland XI: Mignolet, Bardsley, Mensah, Zenden, Malbranque, Henderson, Onuoha, Colback, El Mohamady, Sessegnon, Ferdinand

Daniel Sturridge is deemed fit to start for the Wanderers, but Sunderland are forced into naming a make-shift side.

Everton XI: Howard, Hibbert, Jagielka, Distin, Baines, Arteta, Heitinga, Neville, Osman, Rodwell, Anichebe

Man City: Hart, Zabaleta, Kompany, Lescott, Kolarov, De Jong, Vieira, Milner, Toure Yaya, Silva, Dzeko

Tim Cahill, Jermain Beckford and Seamus Coleman are all named on the substitutes bench for Everton. Also on the bench is Mario Balotelli, who gives way for Edin Dzeko.

Newcastle XI: Krul, Simpson, Steven Taylor, Coloccini, Jose Enrique, Barton, Nolan, Tiote, Gutierrez, Lovenkrands, Ameobi

Birmingham XI: Foster, Carr, Jiranek, Johnson, Ridgewell, Larsson, Ferguson, Fahey, Bowyer, Beausejour, Jerome

The Magpies line-up as expected, and Birmingham’s only slight surprise is that Jean Beasujour is favoured to Alexander Hleb.

West Ham XI: Green, Jacobsen, da Costa, Gabbidon, Bridge, Spector, Hitzlsperger, Boa Morte, Sears, Cole, Ba

Blackburn XI: Robinson, Emerton, Samba, Givet, Olsson, Nzonzi, Jermaine Jones, Diouf, Pedersen, Hoilett, Roberts

David Hoilett finally makes his Rovers return in what is a huge game at the foot of the table against West Ham, who cannot call upon captain-fantastic Scott Parker today.

After all that we’re off to White Hart Lane, where Spurs take on Blackpool in a game that will have significant ramifications at both ends of the table.

          To make it worse for Foster owners he pulled off an immense save to tip Coloccini's effort on to the bar during the scramble that ended in a pen.
