by Steve Ashfield in League One Predictions
Bolton Wanderers are eighth in League One but have lost their last three fixtures. They need to get back into winning ways and on Tuesday are away at 18th-placed Wigan Athletic. Can the Trotters get three vital points? Read our match prediction below.
The visitors are only two points behind the final promotion play-off position. At the weekend though, they lost 2-1 at Blackpool and that followed league defeats at Bristol Rovers and home to Stockport County.
Bolton had only lost one of their previous nine league games before this drop in form. On the road, Wanderers have won eight away league games but lost the same number. The last two have been lost but that ended a run of three without defeat.
Wigan Athletic are eight points above the relegation zone and have a game in hand. Their last two league games have only seen them earn a single point. A loss at Charlton was followed by a come-from-behind 1-1 draw with Barnsley.
Only one of their last four league games has ended in defeat. Six home league games have been won this season with eight loss. 18 home league fixtures have only seen 39 goals scored and we go for both teams to score in this match.

Our Wigan vs Bolton Prediction
Wigan are eight points above the drop zone and heading towards safety. Bolton were in the promotion play-off positions but have dropped out of them as their form has dipped in recent weeks. There's only two points to be made up on the top six though.
Bolton will be wanting to get at least a point from this fixture and have two home games after this trip to Wigan. Our Wigan Athletic v Bolton Wandererers prediction is both teams to score.
