Spurs have won just one of their last seven fixtures in all competitions
This is not a fixture that favours the away side and the Opta stats indicate Bolton's cup run is to end here...
The sides were level (1-1) when the original fixture was stopped due to Fabrice Muamba's collapse, with the goals coming courtesy of a Gareth Bale own-goal and a Kyle Walker header.
Only Everton (41), Arsenal (39) and Manchester United (38) have appeared in more FA Cup quarter-finals than Tottenham (36).
Spurs have been eliminated from three of their last four FA Cup quarter-finals.
Bolton have progressed through eight of their 13 previous FA Cup round six ties.
The Trotters have only lost one of their eight FA Cup sixth round games away from home (excluding replays), winning four and drawing three.
Tottenham have progressed through four of their previous six FA Cup ties against Bolton, including in round five in 2010.
None of the last 16 meetings between Spurs and Bolton in all competitions have been won by the visiting side.
The Trotters scored two own goals on their last FA Cup trip to White Hart Lane, losing the game 0-4 (in February 2010).
The North Londoners have won seven and lost none of their last eight home FA Cup games and have scored more than one in each of their last nine at White Hart Lane (27 in total).
Wanderers have scored exactly two goals in all four FA Cup games this term.
Jermain Defoe has scored three goals in four FA Cup outings this season.
The Opta stats suggest Everton are still on track to meet Liverpool in the last four, despite being held at home......
Chelsea may have to rely on their home form again to see them progress......
Robin van Persie, Junior Hoilett, Gylfi Sigurdsson and perhaps even Sylvan Ebanks-Blake could score this weekend, judging by these Opta trends......
