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 18 of the 73 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Reebok Stadium was just last season, in November 2004, with Aston Villa inflicting a narrow 1-2 defeat upon the The Trotters in a Premiership match.
