Match Time & Date:

Prediction: 1-0
Birmingham City
Macron Stadium will host midweek fixture between Bolton Wanderers and Birmingham City. The Trotters have been in a fine form at the start of the season, with the team beating the likes of WBA and Reading on the road, while sharing the spoils with Bristol City in front of home fans. Bolton aim to stay in the race for a place in the play-offs and seeing that Birmingham City often struggle on the travels, we are tempted to put our money on the hosts. Yanic Wildschut, who came as a substitute and scored the winner against Reading at the weekend, is widely expected to be recalled to the starting XI. The Blues failed to turn their dominance into goals against Swansea City and seeing that they struggle in front of goal, we predict the visitors are going to return home empty-handed from the trip to Bolton.
