90+5
Klasic desperately tries to get forward as the seconds count down but can't get a shot away.

90+4
'One Roy Hodgson' is the chant around the Reebok in these dying minutes. McAuley is led off and can't be substituted as the Baggies have used all their changes.

90+3
McAuley is on the ground after an elbow in the face from Kevin Davies and receives some medical attention.

90+2
Mark Davies goes down again in the box, under pressure from Olsson, but the ref shakes his head and the kick goes to West Brom.

90+1
Bolton will be pleased to know five minutes of stoppage time have been added. Is it too late to stage a comeback?

There's a lengthy build up in the box until Cox eventually smashes a great ball towards Morrison, who slams it into the roof of the net.

90 GOAL! MORRISON! 2-2!

89
Jones is on the ball down the right for West Brom but Eagles pokes it out of play. Baggies throw-in.

88
Davies tries to break for Bolton but he's robbed of the ball by Morrison. Lee commits a foul in midfield for a Baggies free-kick.

87
Brunt charges in for another go and Ream produces some excellent defending to close him down. Bolton aren't even trying to get forward at the minute.

86
West Brom win a corner and Brunt steps up to take it. He curls it towards McAuley but Lee is there to head it away.

85
Just five minutes to play at the Reebok and it's going to be a tense finish. Cox drives a well-struck shot towards goal and Bogdan makes another low save.

84
Olsson feeds Morrison but the Boyata steps in with a great block to deny the Baggies man.

84
McAuley, under pressure from Eagles, almost loses the ball in the box but just manages to keep hold of it.

83
Lee's first contribution is a good one, making a crucial clearance down the left of the Bolton half after being backed into the corner.

82 Lee Chung-yong makes his first appearance this season after breaking his leg, with Petrov - my man of the match - coming off.

81 Simon Cox comes on as Dorrans makes way.

81
Kevin Davies fouls Jones inside his own half and the Baggies are awarded a free-kick.

80
Morrison slots a ball down the middle but Knight is there again with the clearance. Agonising stuff for the home faithful right now.

79
The Baggies are pressing now, hunting the equaliser, but Ricketts and Knight team up to clear.

78
Brunt almost gets another shot away, trying to chase down a pinpoint Olsson ball, but he can't quite get to it in time.

78 Mulumbu makes way as Scharner comes on for the Baggies.

77
This is going to be an anxious end to the game for Bolton. Scharner is coming on for West Brom any moment now.

Dorrans feeds Brunt in the area and he makes no mistake in drilling it past Bogdan. Bolton are suddenly much less comfortable.

75 GOAL! BRUNT FOR THE BAGGIES!

74
West Brom win a free-kick after Kevin Davies is caught offside. Morrison and Brunt pair up, trying to get forward.

73 Keith Andrews comes off for West Brom, with Morrison coming on.

Bolton are 2-0 up after some great work from Klasnic and Petrov. The former sets up the goalscorer, who whips in yet another cross. There's no Bolton player there to meet it but that doesn't matter, as Ridgewell knocks it onto Jones and he puts it in the net.

71 GOAL! JONES PUTS THROUGH HIS OWN NET!

70
So close for Kevin Davies but he's denied by Foster! Klasnic feeds Petrov out on the left and he floats in an inviting cross but the skipper's header is punched out.

69
Long is called up in midfield for a handball, which is harsh as it looked like his shoulder. Klasnic tries a shot on the turn but Olsson is in the way.

68 N'Gog makes way for Klasnic as Bolton make a change.

68
N'Gog wins a corner for Bolton on the right. Petrov whips it in but it goes over the head of N'Gog and it's claimed comfortably by Foster.

67
Klasnic looks to be coming on for the home side. Ridgewell tries his luck with a well-hit shot from a tight angle on the left but Bogdan keeps it out with a low save.

66
Foster produces some good defending, shepherding the ball behind under pressure from N'Gog for a goal-kick.

65
Boyata does brilliantly to win the ball down the right but a chance is wasted as N'Gog loses it in the box, outsmarted by Olsson.

64
West Brom win a corner, which Olsson nods on at the near post, but there's no-one there to latch onto it.

63
Reo-Coker does well to put the ball out of play for a throw, with Fortune chasing down a Mulumbu ball through the middle.

62
West Brom win a free-kick inside their own half and try to build something from deep. Jones attempts to fire a cross in from the right but it rebounds off Ream.

60
Eagles produces a really good effort from the corner of the box, scuffing his fizzing shot just over. Great chance for Bolton.

59
The Baggies win a corner, right in front of their travelling fans. It's headed goalwards by Olsson and Bogdan makes a great, full-stretched save, with Mark Davies providing some cover on the post just in case.

58
West Brom come close through Dorrans but he fires his shot right down the middle and into the waiting arms of Bogdan.

57
Seems harsh on the Baggies, especially since Bolton are awarded a free-kick for a much softer challenge on Eagles. His delivery is a poor one, however, and easily dealt with by the visitors.

56 Zat Knight appears to bring down Fortune in midfield but nothing is given by the ref. Andrews gets a yellow for protesting.

55
Reo-Coker dinks his long-range free-kick towards Petrov but the West Brom defence hold firm.

54 Ricketts picks out Reo-Coker, who storms up the field and is obstructed by Long. The Baggies man earns a yellow card.

53
Long is caught offside as Brunt tries to poke him through in the box, much to the home side's relief. Albion win a free-kick in midfield for a foul on Fortune.

52
Boyata wins a free-kick for Bolton inside their own end but West Brom quickly get back on the ball.

51
Dorrans and Eagles tussle down the left and West Brom win three throws in quick succession. Ream eventually hacks the ball away.

50
A long Bolton throw is headed on by Mark Davies in the Baggies box but N'Gog is called up for backing into Olsson, and is not happy about it.

49
Bolton, who have come out brightly this half, win a corner. Petrov's effort is cleared by Long at the near post. It falls back out to the Trotters man but he plants his cross onto Long's head again.

48
A free-kick is given to Bolton just inside the West Brom half after Olsson appears to push N'Gog. There's a misunderstanding between Ridgewell and Andrews in the box but Foster manages to collect.

48
Mulumbu appears hurt after a collision but is soon back on his feet. A long goal-kick from Foster goes all the way back to Bogdan at the other end.

47
Fabrice Muamba is in the crowd watching Bolton this afternoon, and was apparently in the dressing room pre kick-off, geeing up his team-mates.

46 The second half kicks off, with N'Gog getting things started. Injured Wheater has gone off for Zat Knight at the break.

'Don't Stop Believin' playing at half-time at the Reebok and it's almost time to get back underway...

@Jackson12th is feeling a bit hoarse after that half. He tweeted - "hurt my voice shouting. I'm not even at the match. #bwfc #bwfcfamily COME ON YOU WHITES."

Bolton had looked nervy initially but really settled after Petrov's penalty. How do you think this one will go after the break?

Replays of that penalty incident show it was Andrews chasing down Mark Davies but the spot-kick was given for Mulumbu's foul.

Entertaining first half with chances at both ends. Got something to say? Tweet me @SkySportsRachG or email rachel.griffiths@bskyb.com.

That's it for this half and Bolton lead West Brom 1-0 thanks to Petrov's penalty.

45+3
The minutes trickle down this half and West Brom try a late push but it rolls back to Bogdan. Wheater looks to be struggling again with his knee.

45+2
Bolton win a corner, which Petrov takes but Foster steps straight out to snatch it to safety.

45+1
Eagles' free-kick gets a flick-on from Mulumbu but it doesn't trouble Foster. Three minutes of stoppage time are added.

45 Billy Jones earns a booking after a rash challenge on Petrov and it's a Bolton free-kick in these dying minutes.

45
Bolton win a throw on the left of the West Brom half, which Ricketts takes. Petrov floats a cross into the area and plants it on the head of Kevin Davies but McAuley leans in just enough that the skipper nods his effort over the bar.

44
Goalscorer Petrov, who is looking very lively this afternoon, hoofs yet another ball into the box and Olsson is forced to make a sliding clearance.

43
Fortune charges forward to pounce on a great long ball from Olsson but is closed down by some good work from Ream and Bogdan.

42
Kevin Davies tries a run down the left but he's got no support and is overpowered by the Baggies defence.

41
Petrov fires another cross into the area but Ridgewell clears. Coming straight back for Bolton, Eagles catches a loose ball superbly on the edge of the box but drives it just over the crossbar.

40
Dorrans curls it in and Olsson, totally unmarked, gets his head to it, but the flag is up and his effort goes wide anyway.

39 Long takes a tumble after a foul from Boyata down the left wing and he gets a booking. Free-kick West Brom.

38
Wheater is back on his feet and looks ok to continue, but they'll no doubt be keeping an eye on him. Fortune is flagged as offside and Wheater comes back on.

37
Wheater is down on the ground in apparent pain, and it looks like Bolton might have to make a change, with Zat Knight warming up on the touchline.

36
A lovely ball from Brunt picks out Ridgewell out on the left, and his cross almost finds Fortune but is cleared by Wheater. It's bad news for Bolton, however, after the Trotters man appears to hurt himself with the kick.

35
Brunt fires a long ball upfield, looking for Fortune, but Boyata gets his head to it to dissolve the threat.

34
Mulumbu feeds Andrews in the Bolton box but it gets away from the Irishman, under pressure from Boyata, and Bogdan collects.

33
N'Gog is fortunate not to be looking at a yellow card after a dubious tackle on Olsson, but the ref must not have seen.

32
Mark Davies brings down Mulumbu in midfield and it's another free-kick for West Brom. Wheater does well to win the ball from Dorrans down the left.

31
West Brom win a free-kick in the middle of the park for a Wheater foul on Fortune. Getting forward again, Mulumbu tries a long-range shot but scoops it high over the crossbar.

30
Olsson hoofs a searching ball upfield, looking for Fortune, but the Baggies man is out-jumped by Wheater.

29
Boyata fires a great ball into the box and McAuley does some fast-thinking to knock it straight back out again.

28
An offside decision goes against Long and it looks a very tight call. Bogdan hoofs the ball upfield, looking for Mark Davies.

27
Ridgewell plants a cross in the Bolton box but Boyata gets his head to it before Bogdan snatches it to safety.

26
Mark Davies does well to prevent the visitors from earning a corner, keeping the ball in play. The Baggies win a throw seconds later.

25
That could be a big goal for the home side. West Brom win a free-kick after a foul on Fortune and they look for a quick response.

Foster goes the right way and almost gets his fingertips to Petrov's shot but the Bolton man gets just enough on it to nestle it in the bottom left-hand corner.

GOAL! PETROV CONVERTS THE PENALTY!

23 Bolton are given a penalty! Davies goes down after Andrews and Mulumbu charge in, prompting referee Friend to point to the spot. Petrov steps up to take it...

22
Tense moments at the minute, with chances at both ends. Bogdan charges right out on the left and concedes a throw-in, then makes a quick save.

21
Eagles almost wriggles through on goal but has to make do with a corner. N'Gog nearly nods it home but Foster stretches out a hand to palm it away.

20
West Brom win a throw-in and Brunt picks it up to curl a long shot in from the right, but it sails across the face of goal.

19
Ream is knocked off the ball by Fortune and there's a heart in the mouth moment for Bolton as he feeds Long in the box, but the striker's shot pings off the post.

18
Olsson hoofs a long ball upfield but there's no-one there to meet it as it rolls back to Bogdan. Getting forward again, Brunt presses down the right for the Baggies but Fortune is caught offside.

17
West Brom are awarded a free-kick for a foul on Jones but Foster's effort goes straight out. Back on the ball, Fortune trickles forward to meet a good run by Brunt but he can't apply the finish.

16
Another half-chance for Davies goes begging! Petrov's delivery from the left is helped on by N'Gog but the skipper can't turn it home from an awkward angle.

15
The ball falls to Fortune in the box and he whips it towards goal but it's palmed wide by Bogdan, who is looking solid so far.

14
Wheater looks for Davies with another strong pass and the captain gets a good flick-on but Olsson makes a crucial clearance.

13
The visitors are awarded a corner, which Brunt floats in. McAuley gets his head to it, nodding it downwards, but is denied by Bogdan.

12
Boyata delivers a great long, diagonal ball to find Petrov on the left of the Albion goal. He crosses early and N'Gog almost gets a touch, but it falls to Kevin Davies and he can only blast it across the face of goal as a big chance goes astray.

11
Bolton get the best chance so far as Petrov hits a shot with real venom on the edge of the box, prompting a hurried save from Foster.

10
Fortune loses possession in midfield after a strong, well-timed challenge from Ricketts but the Baggies snatch it back. Long tries his luck with a long-range shot but Bogdan dives to save.

9
Reo-Coker floats in a decent delivery but the flag goes up on Boyata and the ball goes back to the visitors.

8
Boyata takes a tumble after he's tripped by Fortune and Bolton win a free-kick from long range. Nice skill from the Trotters man.

7
Shane Long goes to chase down a Brunt pass, but he's caught offside, and it appears it was meant for Fortune.

6
N'Gog tests Foster with a shot at the other end but the Bolton keeper holds firm. The Baggies are on the ball inside their own end.

5
Ridgewell lifts another Baggies ball in the box and Ream is beaten to it by the head of Fortune, but he can only nod it into the waiting gloves of Bogdan.

4
West Brom win a throw on the right of the Bolton half and Jones latches onto it, planting a cross in the box which the home side hurry to clear.

3
Chris Eagles tries an early shot for Bolton on the edge of the area but his powerful effort hits the side netting and doesn't trouble Foster.

2
Bolton win a throw and it's nodded on in the direction of the Albion box but rolls back to Ben Foster between the sticks.

1
Billy Jones hoofs a long ball upfield, searching for Long, but the Baggies striker just fails in keeping it from going behind.

We're underway at the Reebok and It's West Brom that get things started this afternoon.

Thanks for your feedback! Enjoy the first half.

The teams are out at the Reebok and it's nearly time to get underway. Coyle has a quick chat with Hodgson on the touchline, no doubt congratulating the new England boss.

Hodgson's West Brom are current 10th in the table and bidding to finish in the top half of the top-flight for the first time in 29 years.

Seems to be a lot of support for Hodgson among the travelling support, wishing him well with England. Lots of 'Good Luck Roy' banners.

@dan_smith1993 has tweeted of Lee's return - "again good to see another great player back for Bolton, just want to see Stuart Holden back."

Some more good news for Bolton - Lee Chung-yong returns to the bench having not featured this season due to a broken leg.

There's still just over 20 minutes to go until kick-off - plenty of time to have your say. Get in touch on Twitter @SkySportsRachG or email rachel.griffiths@bskyb.com.

Bolton's cause has been boosted this afternoon by the absence of Albion's top scorer Peter Odemwingie, who is suffering with a hamstring problem.

Max Brand has been in touch to predict a Wanderers win - "I think this match will be very close but I think good 2-0 win to bolton."

Here's a quick update from our friends at Sky Bet - Bolton (11/10 to win) take on West Brom (12/5) in a fixture which has produced seven draw in the previous 11 league meetings , a 2-2 draw today is 12/1.

Nigel Reo-Coker has come through a late fitness test to start for Bolton, shaking off a leg problem. Baggies striker Shane Long has also shrugged off a knock to make Hodgson's side.

It is Roy Hodgson's penultimate game in charge of the Baggies after being unveiled as England manager earlier this week. Bolton will be hoping that news has caused a distraction in the Albion camp they can take advantage of.

Owen Coyle's Bolton are in a precarious position heading into this one and desperately need points. The Trotters are in the basement on goal difference, level on points with QPR, who play Stoke.

Refereeing this afternoon's clash is Kevin Friend (Leicestershire).

West Brom: Foster, Jones, McAuley, Olsson, Ridgewell, Brunt, Mulumbu, Andrews, Dorrans, Fortune, Long. Subs: Fulop, Morrison, Allan, Shorey, Dawson, Cox, Scharner.

Bolton: Bogdan, Boyata, Wheater, Ream, Ricketts, Eagles, Reo-Coker, Mark Davies, Petrov, Kevin Davies, Ngog. Subs: Jaaskelainen, Alonso, Knight, Klasnic, Lee, Miyaichi, Vela.

Here are those XIs for you...

The teams are coming your way very shortly but first why not drop me a line with your thoughts on the match ahead of kick-off at 2pm? Tweet me @SkySportsRachG or email rachel.griffiths@bskyb.com.

Good afternoon all and welcome to our live coverage of Bolton v West Brom at the Reebok Stadium.
