Cheltenham odds: 5/2 (3.50) – 27.0%
Draw odds: 47/20 (3.35) – 28.5%
Bolton odds: 107/100 (2.07) – 45.5%
Despite having the home-field advantage for this one, poor Robins are still considered underdogs with a 27.0% chance to scoop the three points at 5/2 (3.50). Understandably, this gives Trotters the edge. Bolton Wanderers are the expected winners at 107/100 (2.07), so that’s why we believe 0-1 to Bolton (20.83%) is the best move you can make this week.
Cheltenham vs Bolton Lineups & Team News
Cheltenham
As reported in our Cheltenham vs Bolton prediction earlier, the Robins couldn’t make chances pay last week. They failed to score at New Meadow Stadium, they failed to keep a clean sheet, and Salop had the three points ripe for the plucking. We don’t think coach Elliott’s boys will experience something different on Saturday as point-hungry Trotters look sharp ahead of this game.
Predicted lineup – Southwood (GK), Freestone, Bradbury, Long, Bonds, Sercombe, Williams, Olayinka, Smith, Street & Keena
Bolton
The Trotters surprised no one with their 3-0 victory over Lincoln City last week. Coach Ian Evatt should be proud of his boys’ display, as poor Imps couldn’t make a single shot on target, despite trying on six occasions to penetrate Baxter.
Predicted lineup – Baxter (GK), Jones, Santos, Iredale, Cogley, Sheehan, Morley, Williams, Dempsey, Charles & Adeboyejo
Player to Watch: Nathan Baxter
Bolton Wanderers’ opening League One clash wasn’t a good estimate as to whether or not Nathan Baxter is up to par with the League One challenge. The 24-year-old goalkeeper definitely has some serious skills, but they weren’t put to the test by Lincoln City, as the Imps couldn’t produce a single good shot on target.
Nathan Baxter swapped Chelsea for Trotters back in July and it seems that he’s going to be a starter under coach Evatt’s rule.
