Bolton v Arsenal - Arsenal to Win, Sendoros/Campbell to score first/last

When I looked at this match earlier this week, I anticpated that Bolton would 5-2. However Bolton are now favourites, and I think the markets have overreacted. Sure Arsenal won't have their strongest team and have been weak away from home this season, but 2-1 (Betfair) is an insult.

I'm having 10 pts on Arsenal @ 2-1

Regarding first/last goalscorer, I'm backing both Senderos and Campbell for both outcomes. You can get 33-1 on all of these 4 bets at Paddypower with a refund if Arsenal concede a penalty, red card or own goal. (4 pts staked in total).

Both players hyave scored 2 goals this season, and can come into play at corners.

The Arsenal team was missing 2-3 players (notably Henry, Bergamp and Toure) but Bolton were also missing s similar number of players becuase of Arica Cup of Nations duty.

The game turned out to be relatively even - if any team edged it, it was Arsenal with their 2nd half performance.

I would suggest that this proves Arsenal were the best bet @ 2/1, rather than Bolton @ 6/5... rememebr it is the decison that counts, not the result.
