The Saturday Dugout Discussion opens to see a hugely significant relegation battle between Bolton Wanderers and Queens Park Rangers. As two of the bottom five clubs, where three appear certainly doomed, three points in this lunchtime kick-off will be fiercely contested for. The team news for the game is in, are the line-ups are as follows…

Bolton XI: Bogdan, Steinsson, Wheater, Ream, Ricketts, Reo-Coker, Mark Davies, Pratley, Miyaichi, Ngog, Petrov.

QPR XI: Kenny, Onuoha, Ferdinand, Hill, Traore, Barton, Diakite, Derry, Wright-Phillips, Cisse, Zamora.

The home side bring in Martin Petrov in a more attacking line-up, with Zak Knight making way. There’s another start for the impressive on-loan Ryo Miyachi.

As for the visitors, they welcome back Djibril Cisse and Samba Diakite from suspension and name them in their starting eleven. Cisse partners Bobby Zamora upfront.

After that we’ve another five Premier League games to enjoy, ending up at Goodison Park where Everton begin their double against Harry’s Spurs.

The Dugout Discussion chatroom will remain open throughout the day, and can be accessed right here.

    Sunderland v Liverpool is a lesson that it's not how much possession you have, it's what you do with it.

    Just like Sunderland v Man City
    Just like Sunderland v Arsenal (FA Cup)
    Just like Sunderland v Swansea
    Just like Sunderland v Norwich
    Just like Sunderland v Newcastle...

      True. This game really has 0-0 written all over it, it's not like any team has done anything constructive with the ball. Good shot by campbell led to the goal

    And then, to switch it from Suarez to RVP.

    As someone owning McClean, Enrique and Kelly, I'm happy with the afternoon (assuming things finish they are). I'll take a kelly CS given that loads benched him, and that a Mata assist is about the only popular player that did anything today.
