Struggling Bolton Wanderers will be hoping to pull off an upset when they welcome high-flying Sunderland in the upcoming league round. It’s 23rd vs 4th and the home crowd will have moderate expectations.

It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Bolton Wanderers and Sunderland.

Bolton Wanderers form and stats

Bolton Wanderers have played three League One home games so far, perhaps enough to set expectations for the season. In that case, only 2 points from these matches could be a signal of rough times ahead. All in all it has been a very rough period for Bolton Wanderers who hasn’t won a game in their last 14 attempts. Their previous win was against Queens Park Rangers, 174 days ago. Bolton Wanderers are slowly digging their own grave here at Macron Stadium with the depressing streak of not having won a home game in eight attempts. The last victory here came in the Millwall match.

Bolton Wanderers drew their last game, also a home match. Oxford United (placed 17th) was the opponent, 0-0 the score. Heartbreak before that as Bolton Wanderers lost 1-6 at Rotherham United's place.

Bolton Wanderers has huge difficulties finding the net and are scoring on average only once per two home matches in the league: 0 goals from 3 games. Bolton Wanderers have conceded 5 from these games.
