LAST TIME AT UPTON PARK: West Ham 3 Bolton 1 (Premiership, 5-5-07)

HEAD-TO-HEAD: West Ham 22, Bolton 27, Draw nine

FORM: Bolton have struggled this season, probably because they are lacking the in-your-face approach that made them such a difficult nut to crack last term. But new manager Gary Megson will be sure to inject some steel into his troops.

DANGER MAN: Moody Frenchman Nicolas Anelka has the ability to turn any defence in the world inside out. The former Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester City striker, whose total transfer fee tops £50 million, has banged in six goals in ten league games this season.

FUN FACT: While Bolton have a number of famous fans like presenter Vernon Kay, comedian Peter Kay and boxer Amir Khan, they also have a few cheesy celebrities that follow them, such as 80s TV presenter Stu Francis of Crackerjack fame (pictured).

PREDICTION: West Ham 2 Bolton 0
