Liverpool go into this match in desperate need of a win over the over-performing Bolton today. With speculation over Roy Hodgson's future continuing, with many sources saying that the owners are looking for a replacement already, the result may not affect his chances, but it will be very important to Liverpool fans to help get their season back on course!
LIVERPOOL v BOLTON TEAM NEWS
David Ornstein reports: "Liverpool boss Roy Hodgson makes three changes from Wednesday's defeat by Wolves, the most prominent seeing captain Steven Gerrard - described by his manager as "extremely tired" after returning from injury in midweek - drop to the bench. Elsewhere, Daniel Agger comes in for Sotirios Kyrgiakos at centre-back and Fabio Aurelio gets his first league start of the season in place of left-back Paul Konchesky. For Bolton there are two alterations from Wednesday's loss at Chelsea - Mark Davies deputising for Stuart Holden in central midfield and Marcos Alonso replacing suspended left-back Paul Robinson. Meanwhile, Trotters boss Owen Coyle travelled with a squad of 15 players - so names only four of a possible seven substitutes. "
