Sports Mole looks ahead to the Championship game between Cardiff City and Bolton Wanderers.

Championship winners Cardiff City host Bolton Wanderers on Saturday, with the visitors currently holding on to the last playoff spot.

Cardiff have had four draws in their last five games and Malky Mackay will be looking to finish the season as strongly as possible.

Bolton have won four of their last five matches and a win in Cardiff would put playoff qualification firmly in their own hands.

Mackay might decide to shuffle his pack with promotion assured, but is expected to name many of the same players who achieved the 1-1 draw at Burnley.

Dougie Freedman would be reluctant to change a winning team too much, so could name Marvin Sordell and Craig Davies in attack for the second game running.
