Hello and welcome to the Reebok Stadium for today's big North West derby between Bolton Wanderers and Wigan Athletic.
The Latics, who are expected to bring around 1,700 fans, enter today on the back of a morale-boosting 1-0 victory over Liverpool on Monday evening, whereas Owen Coyle's Whites will be determined to return to winning ways following the 4-0 defeat at Sunderland in midweek.
Indeed, the two teams have just been announced and the Bolton Manager has made two changes to his starting line-up from the trip to the Stadium of Light.
Sam Ricketts is suspended so Andy O'Brien comes into the defence to partner Zat Knight at centre-half. There is also a recall for Tamir Cohen, who is back from suspension. The Israel international comes into the side for Ricardo Gardner, who drops down to the bench.
Roberto Martinez had opted to make one alteration to his starting XI, with Victor Moses handed a starting berth in attack alongside Hugo Rodallega. Marcelo Moreno is the man who misses out.
Bolton: Jaaskelainen, Steinsson, Knight, O'Brien, Robinson, Chung-Yong, Muamba, Cohen, Wilshere, Elmander, Davies (Subs: Al Habsi, Shittu, Gardner, Riga, Weiss, Klasnic, Taylor)
Wigan: Kirkland, Scharner, Moses, N'Zogbia, Boyce, Bramble, Rodallega, McCarthy, Diame, Caldwell, Figueroa (Subs: Amaya, Thomas, Scotland, Gomes, Sinclair, Moreno, Stojkovic)
