On the face of it, this is bit of a no-brainer. Liverpool are the Premier League's
form team of the moment after putting together an unbeaten run that may see
them make the top three.
Bolton on the other hand are struggling in the Premier League - despite their
remarkable run in Europe.
Their best domestic result of an otherwise dismal season was the 1-0 win against
United. Bolton's goal was scored by United transfer target Nicolas Anelka but
since he left for Chelsea in January the team has gone into freefall.
Bolton have lost their last four Premier League games - so it should be an easy
three points at Old Trafford on paper.
But in practice United seem to struggle against the most unlikely teams. Just look
at what happened against Derby last weekend and their rubbish displays
against West Ham.
Yet United's record against the rest of the so-called Big Four is exemplary.
So could it be that United have more to fear from Bolton than Liverpool?
