Prediction: 1-0
Rotherham
Buoyed by back-to-back wins over Wigan Athletic and Bristol Rovers, Bolton will look to give fans yet another reason to celebrate when they take on Rotherham United on Matchday 38. The Trotters are determined to secure a top-six finish and we are positive that they will go all guns blazing at the Millers. As William Forrester picked up an injury against the Pirates, George Thomason should sneak into the starting XI.
The visitors, on the other hand, are stuck in the middle with 51 points on their account. With Rotherham having little to play for in the season finale, we are tempted to bet on the promotion-chasing hosts. In each of the previous four meetings between the two sides, the Millers have emerged triumphant. Therefore, the hosts are desperate to put an end to the negative trend. There are no fresh injury worries in the away team.
Highlighted Team (Bolton):
Bolton Wanderers were formed as Christ Church Football Club back in 1874 and three years later they adopted their current name. The Trotters currently compete in the Championship and they play their home games at Macron Stadium, which was opened in 1997.
Speaking of the club’s trophies, Bolton Wanderers won the FA Cup on four occasions (1923, 1926, 1929 and 1958), but they have yet to win the Premier League title. The Trotters were producing splendid displays in the 2003/2004 Premier League campaign, with the team finishing the season in eighth position in the standings, which is regarded as the club’s best result in the English top flight.
Bolton did well to reach the UEFA Cup knockout stages in the 2007/2008 season; the English outfit eliminated Atletico Madrid in the two-legged tie, but Sporting Lisbon eventually proved to be a big catch for the Trotters.
Nigeria international Jay-Jay Okocha is one of the most notable footballers who played for Bolton and he scored 14 goals in 124 appearances in the league for the club. Bury are considered the club’s fiercest rivals.
