Prediction: 1-1
Bolton
All eyes will be on Kassam Stadium when Oxford United and Bolton Wanderers face each other in a highly-anticipated League One game. The Yellows did well to beat Sheffield Wednesday and Portsmouth in the previous two home fixtures, which is surely giving fans a reason for optimism ahead of the visit of Bolton. Gorrin continues to miss out with injury, while Daniel Agyei is a major doubt, and he will be assessed ahead of the kick-off.
The Trotters, on the other hand, aim to build on a 2-1 win over Charlton Athletic. Bolton have been impressive on home soil of late, but given their anything but good away record, the share of spoils is on the cards at Kassam Stadium. Ricardo Santos is back from suspension, while Kachunga, Isgrove, and Sheehan continue to miss out with injuries for the visiting side.
Highlighted Player (James Henry):
James Henry was born in Reading on 10 June, 1989, but he grew up in Woodley. He began playing football at his home-town club Woodley Saints, but he made progress during his spell at Reading’s youth academy. Henry is a winger who is capable of playing as a centre midfielder as well, but he failed to score for Reading in 10 league appearances for the club.
After ending his loan spells with the likes of Nottingham Forest, Bournemouth, Norwich City and Millwall, he signed a permanent deal with the Lions on 28 July, 2010. Henry signed a three-year deal with Millwall and he made his home debut in a 4-0 win over Hull City.
It has to be noted that Henry played for both Scotland and England at youth level in the past, but he has yet to make his debut for the first team. Henry was born in England, but his parents are Scottish and, as a result, he is eligible to play for both England and Scotland.
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.
