Arsenal vs Bolton Wanderers

Odds, Betting Tips and Online Football Preview

Saturday 11th September 2010,

Emirates Stadium

English Premier League Football

Kick-Off: 15:00

 

Arsenal

It's been a solid start to the season for Arsene Wenger's side, who have recorded a draw at Liverpool and wins over Blackpool and Blackburn Rovers.

However, having failed to land Mark Schwarzer the Gunners still have an issue between the sticks, with Manuel Almunia and Lukasz Fabianski struggling for form.

The two main men in Wenger's side, Cesc Fabregas and Robin van Persie, have both had fitness issues at the start of the season, and whilst Fabregas will hope to be fit for Arsenal vs Bolton, it has been confirmed that van Persie will be out for at least a few weeks after suffering an ankle injury in Arsenal's win over Blackburn.

With Theo Walcott now sidelined for six weeks after injuring himself in England's win over Switzerland, Marouane Chamakh and Andrey Arshavin will likely find places in Wenger's starting eleven.

Bolton

Owen Coyle is likely to be delighted with his side's start to the campaign, with draws against Fulham and Birmingham, and a win at West Ham leaving them 5th in the table.

Having come from 2-0 down with ten men to claim a point against the Blues last time out, confidence is likely to be sky high at the Reebok Stadium, however goalkeeper Jussi Jaaskelainen's sending off means he is suspended for this trip.

With Ali Al-Habsi on loan at Wigan Athletic, young Adam Bogdan is likely to start in goal for the Trotters.

Coyle has been employing a 4-4-2 system this season with Elmander and Davies leading the line, but he may revert for 4-5-1 and look to frustrate Arsenal rather than attack them.

Football Match Prediction

Arsenal ran out 4-2 winners against Bolton in last season's fixture at Emirates Stadium, whilst the reverse tie finished with a 2-0 Gunners victory as well.

Bolton have started this season well with Johan Elmander and Kevin Davies always guaranteed to give teams a tough time, and Gary Cahill's fine form being rewarded with a call up to the England squad.

However, without their custodian Jaaskelainen out of the match, confidence at the back might be fragile. With Walcott in fine form and Fabregas looking to get his season started, it's hard to look beyond a home win for Arsene Wenger's side.

Prediction: Arsenal 3 - 0 Bolton Wanderers
