Doncaster vs Bolton Predictions

• Bolton have lost three of their last 18 league matches
• Doncaster have failed to score in five of their last six matches
• Bolton ran out comfortable 3-0 winners when these sides met in November

Bolton should capitalise on drop in grade

Bolton have drawn their last three matches, which on the face of it, isn’t much to write home about. The average league position of their last three opponents was fifth and they should relish facing a significantly lower level of opposition on Friday as they travel to 23^rd place Doncaster. The January window worked wonders for Ian Evatt. Bolton have lost just three of their last 18 matches Since the arrival several new additions in the middle of January. Bolton ran out comfortable 3-0 winners in the reverse fixture with Doncaster, and the visitors go into Friday’s game a much-changed team and in much better form than back in November.

Doncaster have work cut out to avoid drop

Despite last weekend’s success over relegated Crewe, Doncaster still face an uphill battle to avoid the drop. Last weekend’s win was Rovers’ first in seven matches, and they are now five points from safety. The game against Crewe was the first time Gary McSheffrey’s side have scored in seven matches and they will find things much tougher against a Bolton side who have been as impressive as any in League One since the turn of the year.

Bolton should have no issues brushing Doncaster aside at the Keepmoat on Friday. At a shade of odds-on Bolton is the recommended bet here and it ranks as a confident selection. Injuries to a few key players may prevent this from being a complete blowout and in the correct score market I will side with a 2-0 Bolton victory.
