Bolton vs Wigan Prediction & Betting Tips - League One
by Kennedy Kechula in League One Predictions
Game week 20 of League One is here, and struggling Wigan travel to promotion-chasing Bolton Wanderers on Saturday. The Trotters are coming to this game placed seventh, 12 places ahead of the Latics. By virtue of their higher placing, predictions tip Bolton as favorites in this match.
Bolton Wanderers are just a point outside the top six and with a game in hand. They come here in confident mood, having gone unbeaten since falling 5-0 to Stockport County at the start of November.
At home, across all competitions, Bolton won six straight matches, but kept just one clean sheet in 11 matches there.
Wigan Athletic do not bring into this game a very encouraging run. In their last three matches, they suffered straight defeats. That run, after going unbeaten in four straight matches, points to a serious dip in form.
It won’t get better in this game, as they face a side in fine form, yet they have no clean sheet in the last five matches. Right ahead of this match, Wigan posted a 3-2 loss at Chesterfield in the EFL Trophy.
In league matches away from home, the Latics have one win in six. They have an eight-game unbeaten run against Bolton, but in their current form, that could come to a stop on Saturday.

Our Bolton vs Wigan Prediction
Wigan Athletic are on a poor run ahead of this game. They come into this clash having lost in their last three outings. Their away form in League One is also poor. Meanwhile, all seems to be working well for their hosts, except that they aren’t keeping a lot of clean sheets.
Wigan will want to hit them on that front. Even with that, we still feel Bolton will prevail. Our prediction for Bolton Wanderers v Wigan Athletic is for Bolton to win and both teams to score.
