BOLTON v BORO - BETTING ZONE PREVIEW
It's been a topsy turvy start to the campaign for both teams - with Bolton in a seemingly-healthy sixth spot despite struggling to hit top form since the opening day of the season, while Boro's only victory came against none other than champions Chelsea.
It took a last-gasp penalty from Gary Speed for Bolton to beat basement side Watford last time out when the Hornets were guilty of a couple of glaring misses.
And that performance is a real concern for Wanderers because their form at the Reebok last term was a real strength.
It also appears that £8million striker Nicolas Anelka is going to take a couple more games before he's 100% match sharp so now isn't the time to be backing them at around the even money mark.
But Boro themselves have been as frustrating as ever despite Gareth Southgate taking over as manager - beating Chelsea and drawing at Arsenal but losing to Portsmouth and Reading.
They've addressed their defensive concerns with the signings of Jonathan Woodgate and Robert Huth (unlikely to make his debut until next week) but must make do here without skipper George Boateng here who is both injured and suspended.
They do have a decent record against the Trotters though, with no defeats in their last six meetings, and an attritional draw looks the most likely outcome.
Verdict: Bolton 0 Middlesbrough 0
