Bolton Wanders Vs. Manchester United: Lineups

It's Manchester United visiting Bolton Wanderers as the former try to regain their position at the top of the table - they've been knocked off their perch, probably temporarily, thanks to Manchester City's 3-0 win over Wigan Athletic. Sir Alex Ferguson has had to make some changes to a winning formula with Danny Welbeck suffering a hamstring injury. Javier Hernandez isn't a bad replacement, though, and the team also welcomes back Rio Ferdinand to the starting lineup. They should be too much for Bolton, although you never know...

Bolton Wanderers (4-4-2): Jussi Jaaskelainen; Dedryck Boyata, Gary Cahill, Kat Knight, Paul Robinson; Chris Eagles, Nigel Reo-Coker, Mark Davies, Martin Petrov; Kevin Davies, Ivan Klasnic.

Substitutes: Adam Bogdan, Fabrice Muamba, Tuncay, Darren Pratley, David Ngog, Gael Kakuta, David Wheater.

Man Utd (4-4-1-1): David de Gea; Phil Jones, Rio Ferdinand, Johnny Evans, Patrice Evra; Nani, Tom Cleverley, Anderson, Ashley Young; Wayne Rooney; Javier Hernandez

Substitutes: Anders Lindegaard, Dimitar Berbatov, Ryan Giggs, Chris Smalling, Park Ji-Sung, Michael Carrick, Fabio da Silva.
