Megson to keep faith

Gary Megson is set to field an unchanged line-up for Bolton’s derby clash at high-flying Manchester City.

Manager Megson made four changes to the side that lost 4-0 at Liverpool as Bolton faced Wigan last week and the Trotters got their recent revival back on track with a 4-1 home win.

With no fresh injuries or suspensions to contend with, Andy O’Brien and Nicky Hunt should keep their places in defence, while Danny Guthrie and Kevin Nolan are set to remain in midfield.

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