Manchester United Vs Bolton Wanderers: Rollicking Encounter on the Cards

Old Trafford is all set for another rollicking encounter on this Saturday, as Manchester United will lock horns with Gary Megson’s Bolton on what would be a tough weekend for some of the top sides in the league.

Red Devils would be playing without their star striker, Wayne Rooney. However, the team will have the services of Michael Owen, returning after a groin injury, and Edwin Van der Sar, who is going to play his first game of the season after breaking his fingers in Munich.

If Berbatov, who became a father during the week, plays for the home side, there are chances that United will not miss Rooney’s absence. Again, Old Trafford Fans would be looking for a better showing from Alex Ferguson’s men after a 2-2 draw against Sunderland at the same venue.

Bolton, who also came off a 2-2 draw against the Spurs at Reebok Stadium during their last game, would be looking to Gardner and Davies for some inspiration against what would be an electric atmosphere supporting the home side.

If you go by the bookies and recent form, Manchester United is the clear winner. However, form or betting does not win the game; Best team does. And on paper, both the sides look good to score the win.
