It will be the second string's final game of the year and manager Neil McDonald will be hoping his side can improve on their disasterous campaign thus far by beating the Reds tonight.
McDonald has named an inexperienced line up which includes Danny Livesey and Delroy Facey who have both recently completed loan spells at Notts County and Burnley respectively. Jeff Smith, Charlie Comyn-Platt and Cleveland Taylor have all had first team experience in the past but in the main the reserves will consist of Academy youngsters.
Liverpool in contrast name a strong side to face the Trotters with first teamers, Jerzy Dudek, Djimi Traore, Stephane Henchoz, Bruno Cheyrou, Anthony Le Tallec and El Hadji Diouf all in the starting line up tonight.
