Bolton’s fight to be promoted to the Championship at the end of the season will continue on Tuesday when they face Wigan Athletic away from home.
Wigan Athletic had to be relegated to the English third division at the end of last season after a disastrous Championship campaign, and it doesn't look like they're going to win immediate promotion. The Latics are outside the top ten and go into Tuesday's game with just one win from their last four outings, losing two and drawing one.
Bolton meanwhile are competing in Football League One for the third year in a row. Ian Evatt's side finished the last two seasons outside the top five, but things are looking very good at the moment. The Wanderers are just seven points off the top despite having played two games fewer and have lost just one of their last nine outings.
Wigan Athletic vs Bolton Betting Tips: Both teams to score
There is rarely a shortage of goals when Wigan and Bolton meet at this venue. An average of three goals per game were scored in the last six encounters, and bets on 'btts-yes' only lost once in that spell.
Bolton Wanderers' recent outings have also been packed with plenty of entertainment. At least three goals were scored in the visitors' last four matches, and both teams scored in all four games.
- Best Tip: BTTS - Yes
- Wigan Athletic vs Bolton prediction: 1-2

Wigan Athletic team news
Baba Adeeko, Charlie Kelman and Tom Pearce were all taken off at half-time in the draw with Celtenham last time out, meaning the trio will probably start Tuesday's game on the bench.
Liam Morrison, Thelo Aasgaard and Baba Adeeko are each just one yellow card away from a game, but the hosts have no other injuries.
