Arsenal will host Bolton Wanderers in the third round of the Carabao Cup on Thursday, September 26th, with the Gunners entering the match as heavy favorites. The historical head-to-head record heavily favors Arsenal, with 58 wins to Bolton’s 39 in 133 matches played across all competitions.
Despite a draw against Manchester City in the Premier League this past weekend, Arsenal are in good form, sitting in fourth place with 11 points from five matches. However, they will be without several key players, including Leandro Trossard, Martin Odegaard, Mikel Merino, Oleksandr Zinchenko, Takehiro Tomiyasu and Kieran Tierney due to injury or suspension.
Bolton, on the other hand, will be looking to cause an upset after defeating Shrewsbury Town in the previous round of the cup. The League One side currently sits in 19th place with seven points after six matches. They will also be without former Arsenal player Jordi Osei-Tutu, along with Klaidi Lolos, Carlos Mendes Gomes, Will Forrester and Gethin Jones due to injuries.
The match, which kicks off at 12:15 AM IST, can be streamed live on the FanCode app and website in India. Despite the heavy odds, Bolton will be hoping to cause an upset and capitalize on Arsenal’s injury woes.
