Arsenal travel to Bolton tonight in a game that, on paper, looks to have plenty of goals in it. Two managers with attacking philosophies, a small playing area and plenty of attacking talent and firepower. 7/11 of Bolton games at home this season have seen over 2.5 goals and 9 from 11 of Arsenals on the road have seen the over 2.5 barrier broken. Head to heads between Arsenal and Bolton in recent times have seen plenty of goals. Both teams have scored in 73% of Arsenal away games.
Robin Van Persie was back on the goal trail for Arsenal in the FA cup as they came from behind to beat Aston Villa and I'd strongly fancy him to get chances at the Reebok tonight with any two of Chamberlain, Arshavin, Henry and Walcott hitting the bylines and supplying the ammunition. Bolton will be buoyed by their recent home victory over Liverpool and expect another fiesty midfield battle between Song and Reo Coker. Ngog's pace could be key for Bolton, exploiting Mertesacker as the Arsenal line push forward.
