Bolton Wanderers will be hoping to bounce back to winning ways as they host Lancashire neighbours Blackpool this afternoon.

Wanderers are almost safe of the relegation scrap, nine points clear of 22nd placed Millwall, but a win over the Tangerines today would certainly confirm their Championship status for next season.

Neil Danns returns to the side after his two-match suspension to partner Barry Bannan in midfield, while Rochinha will play in behind lone frontman Adam Le Fondre. Neil Lennon has named three strikers on the bench, in the form of Emile Heskey, Eidur Gudjohnsen and Craig Davies.

Blackpool look to be lining up in a 4-5-1 formation, with on loan Sheffield Wednesday forward Gary Madine leading the line.
