Bradford vs Bolton Predictions, Betting Tips and Match Previews

As things stand in League One, it appears as though Bradford’s season is slowly fizzling out. The Yorkshire club remain inside the play-off places, but their hopes of automatic promotion seem to be getting slimmer and slimmer. The Bantams come into this match without a win in four fixtures. On the other hand, Bolton have turned things around of late and are back on track having won two on the bounce prior to this fixture.

At the prices it could pay to stick with the visitors for this one. Given the recent form of these two, it seems somewhat strange that Bradford are such heavy favourites. At odds of 11/8, ‘Bolton Draw No Bet’ is the way to go.

Bradford remain unbeaten at home, but they’ve certainly ridden their luck at times. Having drawn ten times, they aren’t exactly blowing teams out of the water at Valley Parade. In conceding three goals in their latest two draws at home, the hosts have begun to show signs of weakness. If Bolton can continue to play well, then there’s every chance they could end the hosts undefeated run.

Rochdale and Walsall are two fairly useful sides and Bolton managed to do a good job on both of them in recent weeks. With such victories behind them, the visitors should be confident going into this fixture. On top of this, The Trotters boast the best defensive record on the road in League One this season. If they can keep things tight here then they could certainly trouble a Bradford side who’ve kept no clean sheets in their last six.

Right now, Bolton just look in much better shape than their opponents here and I’m getting behind them with the insurance of money back in the event of a draw.
