Firs though a minute's silence for those who lost their lives in the Bradford fire 30 years ago.

Bolton will be fairly relieved they go into tonight's match with nothing to play for - having been in the relegation zone before Neil Lennon's appointment as manager in October.

The ex-Celtic boss has steadied the ship and steered them away from the drop.

He tells Sky Sports: "We are here to win the game and if we do someone a favour, so be it."

The teams are out and the Goldsands is absolutely bouncing. Balloons, scarves and plenty of songs. A great atmosphere.

Bournemouth boss Eddie Howe on Sky Sports: It is a massive game for us, we are aware of that. The league has been tight. It has been a joy to be part of but we want to end on a high."

Bournemouth may be leading the way in terms of goals scored this season but they only just squeeze onto the list of the top six scorers in the league this season.

The Cherries though have goals all over the pitch...

Unsurprisingly, Bournemouth were recognised in this season's PFA Championship team of the year.

Winger Matt Ritchie - who has scored 12 goals this season - and right-back Simon Francis are in the side from the Cherries.

Ritchie was at Swindon Town in 2013, while Francis was at Charlton two seasons earlier.

Mr Hind: Yes Bournemouth have spent a lot but so did Wigan and they are going down. Plus Tubbs was a bit of a flop. Give credit!

Montymadman: Come on Cherries! Watching nervously from Northern Germany before returning for next season after 8 years. Fingers crossed!

Paddington: Criticism of Russian 'sugar daddy' is pretty risible - majority of AFCB players were at the club before he arrived.

Not a bad tally in all competitions this season is it?

Former Bournemouth manager Harry Redknapp talking to Sky Sports: "It is beyond our wildest dreams. I never thought I would see this day come. It has been an amazing achievement by everyone at the football club."

"I never saw Premier League football coming here, I don't think anyone in the town did."

Harry still lives the area by the way...

Move over Harry Redknapp.

The former Tottenham and QPR boss used to be considered Bournemouth's best ever manager but surely that title has long since gone?

Current boss Eddie Howe, 37, has only been a manager for six years but has already achieved enough to be named as the first Football League manager of the decade.

In two spells - together with assistant Jason Tindall - he has guided them to Football League safety and promotion into League One the following season. After leaving to manage Burnley he returned and led them from near the foot of League One to promotion in the Championship and now the brink of the Premier League. Incredible stuff.

As well as live text commentary you can also listen to tonight's match online and on BBC Radio 5 live.

Commentary follows the Monday Night Club, which is already under way with all the build-up.

Christopher Wilton: A concoction of nerves and excitement... Biggest day in our history.

Dan Fookes: Bournemouth to get promoted, struggle next season, fire their manager and hire Harry Redknapp for his 'last job.

Rob Meech: Diehard Cherries fan here. There is no pressure on us. Try needing a win to stay in the Football League, now that's pressure.

Can't argue with that Rob...

It would be easy to miss but this evening's match is also huge for already-promoted Watford.

A Bolton victory would hand the Hornets the title with a game to go, so the champagne will be on ice in Hertfordshire this evening.

Watch Watford hearing about their Premier League promotion on the team coach here. Great scenes.

Middlesbrough and Norwich were both well in the hunt for automatic promotion ahead of this weekend's Championship fixtures, being level on points and two behind Bournemouth respectively.

But a thrilling 4-3 defeat at Fulham for Middlesbrough and a disappointing 1-1 draw at Rotherham for Norwich on Saturday gifted Watford promotion and puts Bournemouth in pole position for the second spot.

There will be a few Bolton fans in the North East and Norfolk this evening...

Tonight's visitors Bolton must feel a little like they are gate crashing a wedding.

Neil Lennon's Trotters are safe from relegation, have no chance of making the play-offs and, without a win in three, may already be laying down their beach towels.

There will be a couple of Championship sides though desperate for them to play the role of party poopers.

Bournemouth could become arguably the smallest club in the history of the Premier League - with a ground capacity of just 11,700. It has to be noted they have had a bit - or a lot - of financial help in recent years though.

Little is known of Bournemouth's mystery Russian billionaire owner Maxim Demin but there can be no complaints about the cash he has spent to help the south coast club get where they are.

Buying the club in 2011, he has yet to give an interview but win tonight and maybe the man who made his money in petrochemicals will finally be tempted out of the shadows.

Giannina Caraceni: If AFCB are in the PL next year, this will be the nothing-to-everything fairytale I'll start telling my brother at bedtime.

Alex Acklam: Some fairytale, Bournemouth got a sugar daddy, nothing romantic. How many clubs can spend 800k on Tubbs, 2.5mil on Rantie etc
