Davies: Pressure on Arsenal

Kevin Davies has piled the pressure on ahead of Bolton's clash at Arsenal.

Bolton have played one game more than Arsene Wenger's men but can leapfrog them in the table if they inflict a fourth defeat in five games on the misfiring Gunners.

With just a month of the Premiership season remaining Bolton would then be in pole position to claim the final UEFA Champions League spot.

Davies believes Bolton have nothing to lose on Saturday, but is confident his side can once again thwart Arsenal.

"All the pressure will be on Arsenal, because they are expected to get into the Champions League," he explained.

"But we proved in the FA Cup that we can go there and get a result and we're really looking forward to Saturday."

Davies feels Bolton have learned from past campaigns and are strong enough this season to claim a European place.

He told the Bolton Evening News: "We are in a fabulous position with five games left.

"We could be stuck somewhere in mid-table with no chance, but we've hung in there and we're in fifth spot, right behind the big four, and we're going to give it a good go.

"We've said the same in past seasons when we've been in similar positions but this time we don't just want to talk about it, we want to go and do it."
