Wigan to Win

Reason for tip

Wigan Athletic look a solid bet at home against Bolton Wanderers in this League One clash. Wigan have been excellent defensively at the Brick Community Stadium, conceding just eight goals in 11 home league games, which gives them a strong platform. Bolton arrive in poor form, winless in four and without an away victory in three, and their recent performances suggest a side short on confidence and momentum.

Wigan 2-0

Reason for tip

A controlled home win appeals, with Wigan’s defensive strength pointing towards another shutout. Thirteen of Wigan’s last 15 League One games have featured under 2.5 goals, underlining how tight and low-scoring their matches tend to be. Bolton’s attacking threat has dipped during their recent slump, and they have already lost three league games 2-0 this season. If Wigan score first, they should be well equipped to manage the game and see it out comfortably.

Wigan Can Make Home Steel Count Against Out-of-Form Bolton

Wigan should be backed to beat Bolton in Saturday’s League One clash at the Brick Community Stadium.

Sixth-placed Bolton are nine places above Wigan in 15th, but they have played one game more. Bolton have won ten, drawn nine and lost six of their 25 games, while Wigan have seven wins, nine draws and eight defeats.

Wigan have been impressive defensively at home this season, conceding just eight goals in 11 League One games – an average of 0.73 goals per game.

Bolton are in a rut, without a win in four League One games and having failed to win five of their last six. They have not won any of their last three away games.

The visitors have been vulnerable defensively recently, with Bolton conceding on each of their last three League One road trips and failing to keep a clean sheet in seven of their last nine league games.

A 2-0 home win for Wigan looks the best correct-score bet. There have been fewer than three goals in 13 of Wigan’s last 15 League One games and three of Bolton’s six league defeats this season have been by a 2-0 scoreline.
