Bolton Wanderers will play Newcastle United in a match between two clubs that need to start winning if they are to avoid getting involved in the relegation battle at the bottom of the Premier League table. Bolton scored a big win last week while the Magpies are coming off of a disappointing effort at home.
Bolton Wanderers held serve at home over West Ham United in week 26 by a score of 2-1 at Reebok Stadium. As a result of their victory Wanderers were able to climb up to 12th place in the league table with 30 points and they sit 1 point behind 11th place Sunderland while maintaining a 1 point edge on 13th place Hull City. O'Brien and Vaz Te have been ruled out while Hunt and Cohen are doubtful for Gary Megson's squad.
Newcastle United are 15th place of the Premiership log with 28 points and sit just behind 14th place Spurs and 1 point behind 13th place Hull City. The Magpies played to a disappointing 0-0 draw at home to Everton last week at St. James' Park. Chris Hughton and Colin Calderwood are in charge of the club in the interim now that Joe Kinnear is no longer around and they will be missing Kadar, Barton, Guthrie, Xisco, Beye, and Gonzalez to injury for this game.
