Arsenal Form

2024/25 Premier League runners-up Arsenal are unbeaten in their last 12 competitive matches. Mikel Arteta’s side began this season with 2-0 wins over Wolves and Aston Villa and a 1-1 draw with Brighton.

The North Londoners resumed winning form by beating Tottenham 1-0. This result came before a goalless Champions League draw against Italian outfit Atalanta.

Arteta’s team drew 2-2 at Man City on Sunday as Riccardo Calafiori and Gabriel cancelled out City’s opener. Leandro Trossard was sent off before half time and Arsenal conceded a 98th-minute leveller.

Arsenal Injuries & Team News

Winger Trossard is suspended and goalkeeper Neto is cup-tied.

Midfield pair Martin Odegaard and Mikel Merino are injured.

Defensive trio Takehiro Tomiyasu Oleksandr Zinchenko and Kieran Tierney are also out.

Bolton Form

League One Bolton beat Mansfield on penalties after a 1-1 draw and Shrewsbury 2-0 to advance in the EFL Cup.

The win over Shrewsbury preceded some patchy league form as Bolton have lost two of their previous three. Ian Evatt’s outfit lost 2-0 at home against Exeter and were thrashed 4-0 against Huddersfield.

A 5-2 victory against Reading came on Saturday as Dion Charles’ first-half hat-trick followed Josh Sheehan’s opener. Kyle Dempsey wrapped up the points by adding a fifth three minutes from time.

Bolton Injuries & Team News

Defenders Jordi Osei-Tutu, Gethin Jones and Will Forrester are unavailable.

Winger Carlos Mendes Gomes and forward Klaidi Lolos are also sidelined with injuries.

Striker Charles is set to start up front. He has five goals in all competitions, including one in the EFL Cup.

Verdict

Arsenal v Bolton

Arsenal are an elite team, capable of rotating and defeating patchy Bolton at the Emirates. The North Londoners give little away at home and there is value on a home win to nil and handicap.
