ARSENAL- BOLTON WANDERERS


Firstly, have to say I fear for Forest in the second half at Stamford Bridge. Chelsea are 3-0 up at the break and had 11 attempts at goal in the first 18 minutes !


Arsenal have only 14 players to choose from, Eboue, Hleb, van Persie, Ljungberg, Gallas, Gilberto and Aliadiere are all unavailable. Jens Lehmann will be rested and Manuel Almunia will continue in goal, all this comes in a week, in which, they have already met Manchester United and North London rivals, Tottenham.


I gave some thought to backing the visitors, but think there is a better bet. I am certain that there will be goals, Bolton were a shambles at Middlesbrough last week, where they conceded 5. The Gunners are on fire and have scored 19 goals in 6 starts this year. Thierry Henry has scored in each of his last 3 starts and I think he will make it 4 in a row today.


He can be backed at 2.12 on the exchanges, an in form striker is always worth following, especially one in a team that creates as many chances, as Arsenal. I expect this bet to win.


4 points Thierry Henry to score at anytime 2.12 Betfair.
Good Luck.
