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.

    Bogdan is lucky. QPR must score though, hit the bar twice, 'scored', and Bolton can't defend.

              Goes to show with Sigurdsson and Pog, i bet 70% of players haven't even heard of them but alas, they'll get them in their teams.

              My research and knowledge allowed me to get Sessegnon early in the season when he was doing nothing. He gets a couple of goals, an ill-educated football follower gets him in and can feel like a genius for it because of his "discovery". Ridiculous.
