Bolton Wanderers Walsall betting prediction

The home team makes its debut in this edition of the FA Cup with the intention of getting a positive result, using the home advantage in their favour. This is a team that usually maintains its competitive level in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 3 wins, 4 draws and 8 losses in away matches, with 12 goals scored and 24 conceded; against 4 wins, 4 draws and 7 losses at their stadium, with 11 goals scored and 18 conceded. They come to this match after a away loss against Hull City by (6‑0). Bolton Wanderers has won 2, tied 2 and lost 6 of the last 10 home matches. They haven't been very strong defensively, since they have suffered goals in 9 of the last 10 matches. In their home matches there is a tendency for few goals, since 12 of the last 26 matches have ended with Under 1,5 goals and 16 out of 26 have ended with Under 2,5 goals. They haven't been able to score the first goal. In fact, they have only opened up the score in 3 of the last 15 matches, they have reached half‑time in advantage in 1 of those 3 matches and have held on to the lead in 1. They have conceded the first goal in 11 of their 15 matches, and have never been able to turn the score around.

Bolton is a team that has already won the FA Cup four times, in addition to having three Championship titles (second national division), having been runner-up in the League 1 (third national league) once and League Cup twice. The team has been making a very weak campaign in the Championship in the current season, having won 22 of the 78 points played so far, thus being at the bottom of the table, close to the first team outside the relegation zone. The team suffered goals in four of the last five games it played at home. We believe that in this clash Bolton, even playing at home, can again suffer goals.
