Match Preview and Betting Tips.
This will surely be the match to watch, since both Peterborough United and Bolton Wanderers have been playing terrific over the last couple of weeks. The teams will play the first match of the day on Sunday in the 17th round of League One.
The series of positive results pushed Peterborough United towards the top part of the table as they are now within the striking distance of promotional playoffs positions. The potential win over Bolton Wanderers would reduce the gap between the two teams to five points, which would mean the world for Grant McCann. Peterborough United took four victories in last five matches in all competitions, including FA Cup and EFL Trophy successes against Cresham United and Barnet within the last seven days. The team managed to bounce back after a disappointing home defeat to AFC Wimbledon with a 1 – 2 away victory at Bristol Rovers in the last league game.
Bolton Wanderers are plying outstanding defense in the last month. The team led by Phil Parkinson has taken five league wins in a row which made them the main candidates for the promotion after 16 rounds of the competition. The latest of the successes came against Port Vale on home ground. Zach Clough is having a terrific season, as he netted five goals since mid-October.
It’s a tricky one, with Peterborough being in a very solid form as well. However, we will go with the in-form Bolton Wanderers since they definitely have more quality in their squad, even though we would advise you to be careful with the stakes.
Head To Head
These two teams have previously met on two occasions. Each side has won one fixture each. The last time they met was back in 2013 – a match that saw Bolton come out on top with a 1-0 victory.
