Prediction: 2-0
Shrewsbury
Bolton will be aiming to move closer to the automatic promotion places when they face Shrewsbury Town in a postponed League One game. The Trotters played out a 1-1 draw with league leaders Portsmouth at the weekend, but it has to be noted that they failed to turn their dominance into victory. Dan Nlundulu faces race against the clock to be fit for Tuesday’s clash, while both Gethin Jones and Dion Charles have recovered from their respective injuries.
The Shrews, on the other hand, failed to impress in back-to-back losses to Portsmouth (1-3) and Wycombe (0-2) and we do not believe that they are capable of spoiling Bolton’s party at Toughsheet Community Stadium. As for the visiting team, both Aaron Pierre and George Nurse remain on the sidelines with injuries, while Jason Sraha is pushing for a recall to the starting XI. Fit-again midfielder Jack Price has overcome his injury.
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.
