Flank attack reinforcements and reinforcements

Several times the ai has received flank attack reinforcements.
Is this random or is there a way to discern the likely hood of this happening on the strat map prior to the battle?

I haven't played the game extensively yet but I''ve not had this flank attack happen for my forces.
Can the flank attack reinforcements occur for the human player also?

With regards to regular reinforcements mid battle, what governs when or if this will happen?

Thank you.

In MP yes for the second player, in campaigns no.

It will happen if a side has more than one army in the province prior to the battle. It can also happen as a random event.
