Bolton
Match Time & Date:

10:00 AM
Prediction: 1-0
MK Dons
Bolton Wanderers will be looking to extend their winning run in the League One to three games when they host Milton Keynes Dons at their University of Bolton Stadium on Saturday afternoon. The Trotters have been showing signs of improvement of late, but they need to keep on raising their form if they are to secure the League One survival.
A win over Milton Keynes Dons will see them overcome points (-2) deficit, meaning that the rock-bottom side are likely to leave their hearts on the field in Saturday’s football game. The Dons are on a four-game losing run in all competitions, with the team heading into the match low on confidence. Considering that the hosts want this win more than fellow relegation strugglers, we are tempted to put our money on Keith Hill’s charges this time out.
