Fleetwood Town will play host to Bolton Wanderers in League One action, looking to sustain their recent rise. The hosts go into this game positioned 16th in the league on 22 points, and Bolton Wanderers are seventh with 28 points. In the last five matches, Fleetwood Town are unbeaten. They have won two of the five games and in three of the last four matches, they’ve scored more than one goal. Fleetwood Town will however aim to improve on their defensive display after keeping just one clean sheet in the last five matches. Both teams have scored in four of Fleetwood’s last five matches but they haven’t suffered a defeat in the last four home matches.
A dip in form in recent matches, has seen Bolton Wanderers’ drop from the top six and they will be hoping for a win here, which could guarantee a return to the promotion spots. In their last two matches in the league they’ve suffered a loss, and drawn the other. With just a point out of a possible six in their last two league games Bolton will be seeking a return to winning ways, especially after also losing in the FA Cup. They have one clean sheet in the last five matches - a 0-0 draw with Cambridge United and both sides have scored in four of their last five games. They have conceded two or more goals in three of the last five matches.
Going by these two sides’ recent matches, another high-scoring game is expected here, and over 2.5 goals will be a reasonable pick.
