Everton prepare to entertain Bolton Wanderers at Goodison Park on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Toffees are clearly on top, having won 41 and lost only 11 of the 72 games.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Goodison Park was just last season, in December 2007, with Everton running out comfortable 2-0 winners in a Premier League match.
