Our prediction for this League 1 match:
Bolton
Match Time & Date:

10:00 AM
Prediction: 2-1
AFC Wimbledon
Bolton Wanderers will be aiming to make amends for a massive 7-1 defeat to Accrington Stanley when they take on AFC Wimbledon at their University of Bolton Stadium on Matchday 20. The rock-bottom side did well to beat the likes of Fleetwood Town and Milton Keynes Dons in the last two home games in the League One, which is certainly giving fans a reason for optimism ahead of Saturday’s clash.
Since Bolton are 15 points behind the “safe zone”, we are positive that they are going to fight tooth and nail against the Dons. AFC Wimbledon quickly bounced back from a 2-0 loss to Blackpool, with the team recording a hard-fought 1-0 win over Gillingham in their last league match. However, we predict that the visitors are going to return home empty-handed from the trip to Bolton as they are not regarded as good travelers.
