Thomas Vermaelen is tipped to make his return after two months of injury.

Thomas Vermaelen is thought to be in contention for Arsenal's Carling Cup clash with Bolton Wanderers this evening.

The Belgian international, who signed a new contract with the club earlier this month, returned to full training last week after a two-month period with an Achilles injury.

Arsenal go into the match as favourites after beating Bolton 3-0 in the Premier League last month.

The teams will battle for a place in the quarter-finals at 7.45pm at the Emirates.
