West Brom host Bolton, in match week 12, of the Premier League, on Saturday, November 19, 2011.
West Brom are coming off a 3-0 loss away at Arsenal, in match week 11. Van Persie proved to be too hot to handle for the Baggies, as he first gave his side the lead on 22 minutes and assisted Vermaelen and Arteta on either side of the interval. West Brom gave a good account of themselves at the beginning, and until Van Persie’s goal, it was an even contest. But Arsenal appeared to draw strength from the strike and went from strength to strength, and particularly after the interval, the visitors found it hard to get out of their own half. The result cannot be held as an indictment against Roy Hodgson’s wards, as they were up against a superior team who struck form.
Bolton recorded a brilliant 5-0 win over Stoke City in a home game, in match week 11. Coming into the game with 13 losses in their last 16 Premier League games, Bolton exacted revenge against Stoke who had beaten them by an identical score in April. Stoke had also put an end to Bolton’s FA Cup campaign, last season.
Bolton’s win was built on goals by Davies, Eagles and Klasnic, the last two getting braces. While Stoke appeared drained from their midweek Europa Cup game in tel Aviv, there was no denying Bolton’s positive intent in the game that could help them kickstart a flagging campaign.
Head to head, in the last 10 years, West Brom and Bolton have met in 20 league games, Bolton recording 7 wins to West Brom’s 2, with the remaining 11 matches drawn. The last time these teams met was in December 2010, a game hosted at Reebok Stadium and won by Bolton 2-0.
