Stelios Giannakopoulos could be handed a rare first-team chance as Bolton resume their UEFA Cup campaign against Aris Salonika at the Reebok Stadium tomorrow night.

Stelios Giannakopoulos could be handed a rare first-team chance as Bolton resume their UEFA Cup campaign against Aris Salonika at the Reebok Stadium tomorrow night.

The Greek midfielder has started just one Carling Cup game for the Trotters so far this season and is desperate to be given the chance to impress new boss Gary Megson.

Megson has no new injury concerns ahead of the clash but is likely to shuffle the line-up which overcame Manchester United on Saturday with one eye already on next weekend.

Team (from): Jaaskelainen, McCann, Michalik, A O’Brien, Meite, Gardner, Cid, Campo, Guthrie, Nolan, Speed, Alonso, Diouf, Davies, Anelka, Al Habsi, Samuel, Teymourian, Braaten, Giannakopoulos.
