BOLTON WANDERERS v LYON

Bolton are expected to make several changes to the side that beat Racing Santander on Tuesday as they bid to win the Peace Cup.

Nicolas Anelka, who was a huge doubt for the game with a bruised foot, will keep his place in the starting line-up and is expected to play alongside Kevin Davies upfront.

Ian Walker's back injury has struck again, meaning Jussi Jaaskelainen will start in goal, behind a back four of Jlloyd Samuel, Gerald Cid, Abdoulaye Meite and Nicky Hunt.

Gary Speed, Gavin McCann and Kevin Nolan return in midfield, with Ricardo Vaz Te keeping his place on the left of the four after impressing against Racing Santander.

Lyon will make two changes from Thursday's victory over River Plate, with Milan Baros and Hatem Ben Arfa being replaced by Anthony Reveillere and Abdul Kader Keita.

The reigning French champions have appeared in both previous Peace Cup final's, losing out on both occasions, to PSV Eindhoven in 2003 and more recently Tottenham Hotspur in 2005.

Today's winners will take home $2million (£1million) and be crowned Peace Cup champions.
