Top Bolton vs Cheltenham Prediction & Tips for League One

Bolton Wanderers hosts Cheltenham on the 4th of February in an attempt to put pressure on the top teams for a promotion spot.

Bolton to Win

With Conor Bradley in the form of his life, coach Ian Evatt can be certain that his team will win on Saturday. The 41-year-old manager himself has a solid record against Cheltenham – two victories, two draws, and only one loss.

However, neither side has the head-to-head advantage as the two teams played against each other six times. Those games ended with two victories for Bolton and Cheltenham and two draws so the Trotters must be at their lethal best despite being favorites.

Conor Bradley to Score Anytime

Bolton’s striker is currently the 2nd-best striker at Ian Evatt’s disposal. Sadly, Dion Charles won’t be in the group for this game as he received a foolish red card against Forest Green so now it’s Conor Bradley’s turn to shine. He scored four goals already this season and he made two assists. He’s a young lad who even has a simple right-back doesn’t miss out on the opportunity to place his name on the scoreboard.

Under 0.5 Cheltenham Goals

No other League One team has an attack as barren as Cheltenham’s. With 23 goals in 27 league matches, the Robbins were never close to permanently escaping the relegation zone. Sure, they are in 18th place now but the four-point lead is less than convincing and it’s all due to the poor attacking record of the team.

And things aren’t going to get easier on the 4th of February when Cheltenham faces an in-form Bolton at the University of Bolton Stadium as the Trotters are one hell of a defensive team and we expect our Bolton vs Cheltenham prediction to be a success.

Bolton vs Cheltenham: Match Preview & Facts

Before you place a Bolton vs Cheltenham bet, make sure you check out our match preview.

Bolton

The Trotters are currently in 5th place in League One and after 14 victories, eight draws, and only seven losses, Ian Evatt’s boys are firm favorites to earn a promotion spot at the end of the season. Our Bolton vs Cheltenham prediction took into account the fact that the home team lost only one of the last five matches.

Ian Evatt´s News:

Fortunately, the English coach will have a fully healthy squad, so far two of his most relevant players are Victor Adeboyejo and Dion Charles, who scored 11 goals each. Bradley’s performance has also been essential, with 4 goals and 4 assists he has helped his team stay in a playoff spot. Bradley has created 6 big chances, just one more than defender Jack Iradale, who despite his position also contributes in the attack.

Cheltenham

Despite Wade Elliot’s 1-0-0 record against Bolton, we feel that the Robbins are underdogs on Saturday as their performance since the start of 2023 has been quite questionable. With four consecutive losses and a draw, Cheltenham will most likely be deprived of a victory on Saturday as well.

Wade Elliott´s News:

Wade Elliott’s job as manager and the performance of the players is starting to be questioned, as after a terrible run of defeats they have said goodbye to the qualification places. Cheltenham Town must now fight to avoid slipping further down the table and risk dropping into the relegation zone. All players are healthy and available to face a tough challenge in the next round of fixtures.
