Match Preview
Elmander must decide Bolton boss Owen Coyle is happy to leave it up to top scorer Johan Elmander to decide whether he stays at the club. The 29-year-old Swede, who was Wanderers' record signing when they bought him from Toulouse in 2008 for #8.2million, is out of contract in the summer and Coyle does not expect the striker to sign a new deal before then. Elmander, who has been linked with a move to Newcastle, is enjoying by far his best season at the Reebok Stadium with 10 goals and has formed a good partnership with captain Kevin Davies. Coyle insisted he is not unhappy with the situation, saying: "The chairman had a chat with Johan's representative in November/December time and it was a good discussion. "I think at that time it was left that they would have a chat in spring, and that was fine because that told me Johan didn't want to leave in January. "Johan's well within his own rights to let his contract run to the summer, which will happen, and then decide what he wants to do. "But I know the chairman is looking to speak to his representative in the next couple of weeks and we'll see what comes of that. "Johan's been very up front and honest so I've got absolutely no problem with that. He's a top lad and a terrific player and I would love to keep him at the football club. "But, equally, I have to be understanding and, if Johan wants something further down the line for himself or his family, then so be it." Bolton head into Sunday's match against Everton looking for only their second win in eight Barclays Premier League games, and Coyle is in no doubt what is partly responsible for that run. The Trotters boss was left fuming by a number of decisions in last weekend's 2-1 defeat by Tottenham, when referee Mark Clattenburg awarded Spurs two penalties and booked Gary Cahill for diving instead of giving the visitors a spot-kick of their own. Coyle believes his side have not had the rub of the green on too many occasions this season and he made his feelings known to referees chief Mike Riley this week. He added: "I've said my piece. I'm happy that I did and now I've moved on. I've got a game this Sunday to look forward to and I can't affect what's happened. "It's important you do get it off your chest because if you allow that to fester then it just makes it bigger. "If I look at a lot of games this season then I think it's been a travesty what's happened. I'm sitting here on 33 points and I believe we should easily have 40 points in the league and that's just through decisions that haven't gone our way. "They say it evens itself out. I don't personally believe in that, because if it did then I think we'd be due about 20 decisions in the last part of the season." Coyle has no fresh injuries to worry about but he will assess the fitness of his international contingent before deciding on a team for the Reebok Stadium contest. Everton manager David Moyes could have decisions to make at both ends of the pitch. The form of Louis Saha in recent weeks - including a four-goal haul in last week's thrilling 5-3 win over Blackpool - appeared to have put an end to the Toffees' goalscoring problems. But with the Frenchman having now suffered an injury which rules him out, Moyes will have to make a change. Moyes must also address the issue of a leaky defence which has not kept a clean sheet for 10 games and conceded three against Blackpool. Moyes said: "I like to score - I am a supporter as well - I like to see goals in action. "But when you are the manager and do the work - I look at the defensive mistakes we made in the last game and I can't take pride in that." One change Moyes could make at the back would be to restore England defender Phil Jagielka, who after a spell out with a thigh injury has come off the bench in the last two games.

Match Report
Sturridge continues hot streak Daniel Sturridge could turn out to be one of the signings of the January transfer window after his third goal in three games for Bolton helped them to a 2-0 win over Everton. On loan from Chelsea, the England Under-21 striker put the match out of Everton's reach. Sturridge extended Bolton's lead after England defender Gary Cahill opened the scoring with his first goal of the season. It was just the result the club were looking for after losing five out of their previous seven league games. And they got off to a perfect start with Cahill opening the scoring in the 10th minute following Stuart Holden's free-kick on the left flank. He peeled away from his marker and saw his header come off Everton defender John Heitinga and wrong-foot Tim Howard. Everton responded and should have equalised in 17th minute when Tim Cahill was left unmarked at the back post but fired wide following a cross from Leighton Baines. Bolton were forced to make a switch in the 27th minute with defender Zat Knight unable to continue. He fell awkwardly after tangling with Victor Anichebe and was replaced by David Wheater. The home side kept up the pressure and won a free-kick 20 yards out after Heitinga was adjudged to have tripped Daniel Sturridge as he tried to race forward. Matt Taylor stepped up but only succeeded in drilling his effort into the arms of Howard. Everton again found themselves on the back foot in the 39th minute when Holden delivered a free kick to the back post. Howard, however, punched clear with Wheater waiting for any slip-ups. Play switched down the other end and Cahill tested Bolton goalkeeper Jussi Jaaskelainen from the edge of the area. The home side were looking the brighter of the two teams at this stage and Taylor attempted to pick out Sturridge in the area a minute before half-time. However Phil Neville was perfectly positioned and made the interception at the post to concede a corner, much to Everton's relief. Bolton started the second half on the front foot and won a free-kick in the 51st minute after Sturridge was tripped by Marouane Fellaini. Taylor stepped up 20 yards out but his effort failed to breach the defensive wall. Everton suddenly turned up the pace and Anichebe got into a good position in the area in the 56th minute only for Cahill to make a crucial block for Bolton. Then Fellaini was set up by Seamus Coleman but he sent his effort high and wide of the woodwork. Bolton manager Owen Coyle decided to freshen things up in the 59th minute by bringing on Lee Chung-yong for Taylor. This was a good spell by Everton with Cahill beginning to find more room in and around the area. He then sent a snap shot over the bar five minutes later. However Bolton went 2-0 ahead in the 67th minute with Sturridge's third goal in three matches since arriving on loan from Chelsea. The striker smashed the ball into the corner from an acute angle following a flick-on from Lee. Holden found the net for Bolton in the 80th minute after a back heel from Sturridge. However, referee Lee Probert ruled out the American's effort, ruling that Sturridge had run the ball over the by-line. Everton responded and substitute Jose Baxter rattled in a shot three minutes later that was parried by Jaaskelainen. Johan Elmander almost added a third for Bolton two minutes after Kevin Davies' knock-on, only to see his effort go marginally wide of the target. While Bolton were celebrating, these remain worrying times for Everton after only two wins in the league on the road.
