last win was in 2002-03.

In the Premiership the Reds have won 2, drawn 2 and lost 2 of the away
games with Bolton. In the process they have both scored and conceded eight
goals.

There tends to be at least three yellow cards shown in this away game every
year. So far twenty cards in six games have gone up. Robbie Fowler is the
only player ever to be sent off against Bolton in the Premiership.

This will be the 120th meeting between the two sides in all competition.
The Reds have slightly more wins than Bolton - 46 to 42.

At Bolton in the league the Reds have won 16 and lost 24 with 12 draws. The
Reds' biggest win over Bolton away was a 4-0 win way back in Septemeber
1907. Bolton's biggest win was a massive 8-1 win over the Rds at Burnden
Park way back in 1932. Daniel Mcorie scored the consolation goal for the
Reds that day.

The Reds need just two goals to hit the 350 mark away from home in the
Premiership.

A win for the Reds would ensure Rafa Benitez has amassed over 100 points in
charge of the Reds in the league.

Player Stats : Both Steven Gerrard and Sami Hyypia have two goals against
Bolton. No BOlton player has ever got past one against the Reds.

Luis Garcia needs one to hit the 20 goal mark for the Reds. A ha trick for
Peter Crouch would take him to double figures for the season.

Jose Reina and Jamie Carragher are the only ever presents in the league for
the Reds so far this season.

Reina has conceded just a goal every other game away from home in the
league this season on average. Of the nine games though the five goals
actualy came in just three of the games - Birmingham and Fulham saw two
each whilst Everton on Boxing day scored once. All other games have been
shut outs.
