Bolton Wdrs. prepare to entertain Aston Villa at Reebok Stadium on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The The Trotters are clearly on top, having won 40 and lost only 17 of the 72 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Reebok Stadium was less than a year ago, in April 2004, where the two teams cancelled each other out in an enthralling 2-2 draw in a Premiership match.
