What They're Saying
Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers (via Liverpool Echo): "This season was always going to be difficult. With so many changes and everything that's happened, we weren't going to challenge for the league this year. That's reality. This season has been about getting into the top four, minimizing the impact of so many new signings, giving them the time to develop and then targeting a trophy in the cup competitions. That's very much in our focus now."
Bolton manager Neil Lennon (via ESPN FC): "We are trying to work out how we are to cope with them [Liverpool] and create chances. You can't go to clubs like Liverpool and sit back all afternoon and just admire Liverpool on the ball. We are going to compete and try and cause them problems."
Tactical Preview
Player to Watch: Liverpool's Lucas Leiva is the key cog in the club's revival. Protecting Rodgers' newly formed, three-man backline, the 28-year-old is averaging four tackles and two interceptions in league play.
Liverpool's Projected Lineup (3-4-1-2): Mignolet; Sakho, Skrtel, Can; Enrique, Leiva, Henderson, Manquillo; Markovic, Lallana; Borini
Bolton's Projected Lineup (4-3-1-2): Lonergan; Ream, Wheater, Mills, Dervite; Vela, Danns, Feeney; Pratley; Gudjohnsen, Heskey
