1238: Ryan Nelsen is struggling, he’s going to come off. Blackburn are preparing a substitution.1236: Michel Salgado rolls back the years by cutting in from the right past Matthew Taylor and surging into the Bolton box, but the one-time Real Madrid right-back overruns the ball and Jussi Jaaskelainen gathers.From SportsDeskLive on Twitter:](http://twitter.com/SportsDeskLive)"It is now over seven hours of PL football since Bolton last scored a PL goal - Chung-Yong Lee netting against Burnley on January 26."1233: … who curls it a couple of yards past the angle of post and crossbar. I’ve got to stop doing that, haven’t I1232: Nikola Kalinic does well to hold the ball up until Bolton’s Paul Robinson brings him down. It’s 23 yards out, slightly right of centre. Step forward Morten Gamst Pedersen…1231: Ryan Nelsen needs a bit of treatment for Blackburn. He’s off the pitch at the moment, the New Zealander, but I’m sure he’ll be OK.1228: Junior Hoilett races on to a ball forward for Blackburn, but Jussi Jaaskelainen is superbly alert and races 10 yards outside his box to make a fine sliding challenge. Great goalkeeping.1227: It’s a better game than many people would have been expecting - including the locals, judging by the empty seats. Not sure how we’re still goalless, in fairness.From James Allen on 606:](http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/606/A63616296)“I am liking the new-look football from Bolton, but I thought the whole point of signing Weiss and Wilshere was to help Bolton play the football that Coyle wants us to. Why are they not starting”
1223: Double chance - and somehow, Bolton survive. Firstly, Keith Andrews sees his header cleared off the line as Blackburn throw players forward for a corner and then from the rebound Nikola Kalinic volleys thunderously against the post.
1221: Would you believe that your friend and mine Caroline Cheese is doing this match report My live text colleague has reminded me that this is the Paul Robinson derby too, with the teams enjoying one apiece. I wonder if the Neighbours legend is watching on, somewhere, filled with pride for his screen character namesakes1218: The winners of this one might be the team who can get their cultured left foot on the ball as much as possible and in the dangerous areas, too. It’s Morten Gamst Pedersen v Matthew Taylor.1216: It’s gone a little scrappy at Blackburn, but Bolton are more in the game than they were at the start and they tee up Fabrice Muamba to curl over from 20 yards.From Dave, an Aussie in Nottingham, via text to 81111: "Been up since 3.45am to watch my beloved Perth Glory lose on penalties in an elimination final back in Australia. The coffee’s wearing off and I shall soon be shifting to something harder… Let’s hope a day of top class games keeps me awake!"1211: First real danger from Bolton sees Matt Taylor swing over a fabulous cross from their left and with Kevin Davies lurking, Gael Givet gets in a crucial header to clear inside his own six-yard box. It’s lively, you’d have to give it that.1209: It’s all Blackburn. Morten Gamst Pedersen’s brilliant cross from the left is headed goalwards by Nikola Kalinic and Jussi Jaskelainen pulls off a fine reflex save. Kalinic, it turns out seconds later, was offside anyway.1208: Worst shot of the day. Morten Gamst Pedersen throws another long one into the mixer and when it comes back to him, he volleys left-footed wildly wide. In fact, it goes away for a throw-in on the other side of the pitch. About 20 yards from the byeline. Oh dear.1206: Ball in the net - but no goal. Morten Gamst Pedersen hurls a long throw towards the Bolton goal and it flies straight over Jussi Jaaskelainen and in. But it didn’t touch anyone, so it doesn’t count.
BBC Radio 5 live pundit Steve Harper: "I think they’ve cleared the snow off the pitch and also cleared the grass off it too, or at least it looks like that from up here."1203: Junior Hoilett goes up for a challenge with Jussi Jaaskelainen and referee Chris Foy gives the keeper the benefit of the doubt and a free-kick, predictably.1201: On the ‘W’ of the whistle (I know, I haven’t really thought this through), we’re under way in the north-west. Too many empty seats for my liking, but let’s not dwell on that already.**1159: **I can barely believe that **Football League Macca **is in the mixer too today. Here’s his very, very late morning chat: "You would have thought five Premier League games, a Champions League play-off (kind of), a Lancashire hotpot and some top-drawer chat would be enough for one Sunday. But no. How about we throw in a Championship showdown featuring freefalling Bristol City at home to happy travellers West Brom It’s live on BBC One and this very website from 1345 GMT. Exciting times."1157: The teams are out for this Lancashire ho- er, derby at Ewood Park between Blackburn, in 12th, against Bolton, who lie 18th.From number_10 on Twitter:](http://twitter.com/number_10)"Only one of the last 17 meetings between Blackburn and Bolton has ended in a home win. That is stunning!!"1153: After Polly let herself down so badly yesterday, it’s time to go back to Stevo’s Predos:
Aston Villa 2-0 Burnley
Blackburn 1-1 Bolton
Fulham 1-0 Birmingham
Man City 3-3 Liverpool
Wigan 1-2 Tottenham
Lawro’s Premier League predictions1149:****Blackburn v Bolton:](http://www.paklinks.com/sport2/low/football/eng_prem/8520110.stm)Rovers have lost only one of their last 12 home games in the Premier League, while Bolton have gone 415 minutes without scoring in the top flight.Since a 2-1 win at Birmingham in September,the Trotters have taken three points from a possible 27 on the road.Steve from London, via text to 81111: "I have faith in Johan Elmander. He will come good soon. It would be nice if he scored a winner today."From JamesD1 on 606:](http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/606/A63616296)"Re 1130 - what about Everton as a realistic club to be chasing for fourth place Yes, they could be 10 points behind after today but with victories against Man Utd and Chelsea in consecutive games there is no reason why they cannot continue to be top of the form table for another six games. Did anyone watch them yesterday They looked seriously good."1141: What are you waiting for Without mentioning the phrase “Lancashire hotpot”, drop us a missive: texts go to 81111 (UK) and +44 7786200666 (the world);****bare your soul on 606;](http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/606/A63616296)andget with the programme by tweeting @Stevo_football.**1138: Blackburn **boss Sam Allardyce makes one change from the team that beat Hull on 10 February as Junior Hoilett replaces Brett Emerton, who misses out altogether. Owen Coyle keeps faith with the **Bolton **side who drew 0-0 at Wigan in midweek, meaning Arsenal loanee Jack Wilshere is again on the bench.1135: Blackburn v Bolton line-ups:
Blackburn: Robinson, Salgado, Nelsen, Givet, Olsson, Andrews, Nzonzi, Hoilett, Pedersen, Diouf, Kalinic.
Subs: Brown, Dunn, Roberts, Grella, Reid, Di Santo, Chimbonda.

Subs: Al Habsi, Mark Davies, Klasnic, Cohen, Andrew O’Brien, Wilshere, Weiss.
Referee: Chris Foy (Merseyside)1133: Yep, welcome to a bumper Sunday. The top three have pulled away, so it’s left to one from four to battle for the final berth in club football’s greatest competition. Manchester City, Liverpool, Aston Villa and Tottenham are all in action today - we’ve got five games in total, so get ready for all hell to break loose.1130: Let me get this straight:The Premier League, in an attempt to make its product even more marketable, wants four clubs to fight for the final place in the Champions LeagueHang on, isn’t that almost exactly what’s happening already today..This article is from the BBC News website. © British Broadcasting Corporation, The BBC is not responsible for the content of external internet sites.
