Prediction published on 08/04/2019, 12:06  by Daniel Ngulu | Modified on 08/04/2019 at 13:06 in Championship Predictions

Bolton Wanderers need three points to help in their rise from the relegation region; they are eight points off safety and just like Middlesbrough, they badly need a win here. With just three wins in 15 matches, they will not be the most confident ahead of this game, but at least they have managed two wins in the last five matches, unlike Middlesbrough who have six losses in the last six matches. Bolton have just one clean sheet in their last 15 matches, a pointer of a poor defence from the home team but they will be hopeful when facing Bolton, who have managed to score just two goals in their last five matches, and conceded 10. Playing at home, Bolton have lost 11 of their last 17 matches and they have just two clean sheets in the process. In the same number of matches, but playing away from home, Middlesbrough have won seven and lost five while scoring in all but five. Middlesbrough have beaten Bolton in each of the last seven meetings, and are unbeaten in this clash in nine matches, with eight wins while they have picked just one loss. Five of the last six meetings between the two sides have ended in clean sheets for Middlesbrough. This will be the 100th meeting between the two sides, Bolton have 41 wins and Middlesbrough 35.
