Bolton v Manchester United



What a week it has been we have had Ferrari crashes, a Man United home win against Chelsea which was followed by another home win but against Wigan and tomorrow if we get a win at the Reebok Stadium then we will go top of the Premier League and I could be wrong but I think it would be the first time we have been top this season.

It is a great Manchester derby which if you don't come from Manchester or up north you tend to forget sometimes, this fixture last season saw Bolton beat United 1-0 with an Anelka goal so we won't take them lightly.

If United win and keep a clean sheet then we will equal Chelsea's record of 10 consecutive Premier League clean sheets.

The good news is that Bolton have conceded more Premier League goals to Man United than any other club- a total of 44 hopefully that will become 45,46 or 47 tomorrow.

Bolton have a few injuries and injury doubts- Cahill and Steinsson could return but McCann and Elmander are out due to injury and Nolan is banned.

Bolton do have Puygrenier in the squad who is on loan from Zenit St Pertersburg and they also have their new signing Makukula.

Man United do have a few injury doubts of their own- Tevez and Evans will have fitness tests at 10am tomorrow morning to see if they can play.

Ferdinand, Evra and Rooney are all out due to injury.

Tomorrows match will be an extremely hard one, Bolton are a hard team to break down especially at home but with an added incentive to go to the top of the table then we must win the match.

Chelsea are playing against Stoke tomorrow at Stamford Bridge, they should beat Stoke but over the past few weeks you never know, Liverpool have Everton on Monday so that will be an exciting match, lets just hope Everton and Stoke can take points of Liverpool and Chelsea.
