Arsenal v Bolton, 3pm
It’s been a solid start to the season for the Gunners, with Arsene Wenger stating that his young team are now ready to win the Premier League. It hasn’t helped that the injury-prone Robin van Persie has been ruled out for six weeks, although Arsenal should still ease to victory without the Dutchman as they look to build on their two wins and a draw.
Stan James offer a stand-out 1/4 that it’s three points for the north London team, who trounced Blackpool by a 6-0 scoreline three weeks ago. If you fancy a repeat against Wanderers, Blue Square offer odds of 50/1 and it should be noted that Bolton did concede twice against Birmingham in their last match and the fact that Jussi Jaaskelainen will be suspended for slapping Roger Taylor in the face.
Even so, Owen Coyle’s team are unbeaten so far this season and the Scot will fancy his chances of taking a point from this match, something which is available at 11/2 (bet365). We shouldn’t forget that they went into a 2-0 lead before losing 4-2 last season and Ladbrokes offer 14/1 that they finish in front this time around, something which would put a big dent into the title hopes of their opponents.
While van Persie and Bendtner are missing, perhaps we will start to see the best of Marouane Chamakh, who is starting to settle in at the Emirates. The Moroccan is 4/1 with Sky Bet to open the scoring, while Theo Walcott can’t be ignored after scoring four goals in his past two matches. The 21-year-old is 5/1 with Sky Bet to open the scoring for the third Arsenal game running.
