Bolton Wanderers form and stats

The loyal fans travelling with their beloved Wanderers have enjoyed the stadium food more than the matches as the visitors have gone eleven consecutive matches without winning on the road. The last time three points were secured away was the Bristol Rovers game.

This game can not go any worse than the last one, a League Two home defeat versus Forest Green Rovers with 0-1 on the scoreboard. A loss against Crewe Alexandra was the result prior to that, in a EFL Trophy home game.

Let's have a look at how Bolton Wanderers performed last season in the League One: They landed a 23rd position in the league table after playing out 5 victories, 11 draws and 18 defeats. In total they scored 27 and conceded 66 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 1 - drew 3 and lost 13 with 10/43 goals scored/conceded.
