MARK Viduka insisted today that Leeds have no intention of under-estimating Wanderers in tomorrow's Elland Road clash.
David O'Leary's glory hunters are confident they can build on their encouraging start to the season but the Aussie hot-shot says recent events at international level should have taught everyone to expect the unexpected.
"We can't afford to under-estimate anybody in the Premier League," the Leeds top scorer warned, "epecially Bolton who have made such a good start to the season.
"You only have to look at the England-Germany match to see that anything is possible in football. We will have to be on our guard tomorrow."
Viduka, who scored 22 goals for Leeds last season, signed a lucrative extension to his contract in the summer and, like many at Elland Road, believes this could be the year when O'Leary's young charges turn their enormous potential into trophies.
Standards are high though and, despite banking seven points from their first three games (winning at home to Southampton and away to Arsenal then drawing at West Ham), they have not be entirely happy.
"The lads are desperate for glory this season," Viduka said. "We are all here to win something and that means winning all our home games and hoping to pick things up away from home.
"We've all had a good break and, although we know we have not hit top form, we are confident we can continue our good start, although it will not be easy tomorrow."
