Mark Lawrenson predict's us to go down.

We stand a chance then!

This game is so important for Bolton but it is difficult to see them going to the Britannia Stadium and winning, especially because winning anywhere has been such a problem for them.

Like Blackburn, they have picked precisely the wrong stage of the season to go on a bad run. Wanderers have lost only one of their last five games, but they have also won just one of them.

I don't know how Bolton boss Owen Coyle will approach this game. Will he go gung-ho? I wouldn't have thought so. In fact, he might play it depending on how QPR are getting on against Manchester City. Even so, no matter what is happening at the Etihad, Bolton are in for a very tough game.

Even if Wanderers go down, though, I still think they should stick with manager Owen Coyle. He has already taken Burnley up out of the Championship, he will get some parachute money to play with and he also has some very good players at the Reebok already.

Prediction: 1-1

Yes we have Lawro, sadly we have been on a bad run pretty much all season.

He hasn't been given money to play with in this league, I can't see him exactly being given a war chest in the champsionship.

Lawro is such a plonker and so desperate to see us go down, he just makes stuff up off the top of his head.

We've won 6 on the road this season, the highest number of any team in the bottom half (jointly with Wigan, who have played one more away game), including two of our last four games. Our away form is so much better than our home form, it's hardly a disadvantage for us this season it seems.

A football "expert" who knows next to nothing about the majority of teams.

I guarantee if the fixtures were the other way around (Stoke vs QPR) he would have them beating stoke, guarantee it.
