Derby County vs Bolton Prediction & Betting Tips - League One
by Nella Wagah | in Football Predictions
Bolton Wanderers will be out to leapfrog Derby County in the League One table when they visit Pride Park on Saturday. One point and a place separates these two sides, with Derby starting the game second and Bolton third. Derby County have banked 75 points and will look to open up a gap in their automatic promotion quest. Ahead of this game, the Rams head into this game with three straight wins and a great scoring run. In their most recent outing, they beat Reading 2-1, Dwight Gayle, the first goal scorer, netting his third in as many matches. With goal difference expected to play a key role later in the season, Derby would have wished to keep a third straight clean sheet in that win. However, they will take pride in their scoring run, having managed at least a goal in 10 straight games. Each of their last five have produced over 2.5 goals and both teams scored in three. Derby will be confident going into this game, with just a loss in seven home matches. They’ve won five of their last seven home games.
Bolton Wanderers did a great service to their automatic promotion hopes, beating Oxford United 5-0 in their last outing. That was their fourth unbeaten game, a run in which they have two wins. They come into this game having lost just twice in the last 11 matches. With 74 points so far, they are confident of leaping above Derby to second, with a win here. In the reverse fixture, they ended a three-game winless run against Derby in a 2-1 win and they’ve set sights on a double. All the four occasions Bolton failed to win in their last six matches were away from home. It means they have something to address ahead of this key game. In context, they can look at the last two away games with positivity. The Trotters drew in those two away matches, the most recent ending 2-2 against Exeter City. An outstanding stat in their matches has to do with the goals scored. Four of their last five away games had over 2.5 goals.
