Bolton take on the visitors Birmingham at “Macron Stadium” in the matchday 40 of the English Championship. The game will be played in Bolton on Tuesday, April 3rd.
After returning to the Championship from the League One Bolton are doing very bad. At the start of the season the side has lost to each and every, scoring very rarely. This gave the grounds for considering “The Trotters” being one of the main contenders for relegation in this season, however, two months later the team started to pick up points regularly and with seven rounds left till the end of the season it is sitting on the 20th place in the Championship table, being five points ahead of the closest chaser. Nevertheless, with Birmingham not counted, Bolton still have the worst results on the road, feeling quite comfortable at their own turf. The club deserved eight triumphs in 19 home clashes. Moreover, “The Trotters” picked up 10 points in five latest battles conducted in front of their supporters and it should be mentioned that among the defeated opponents were not only outsider Sunderland, but also candidates for the Play Offs zone -Aston Villa and Bristol City, plus Bolton got a draw against Fulham and failed only against Preston.

In their turn, Birmingham sit close to their upcoming opponents, being three points behind them and two points ahead of Barnsley. The reason why “Brammies” appeared in the relegation zone is the same as Bolton’s one. The team looks awful on the road, having managed to collect only 10 points in 19 away tackles, having lost 13 of them. The side’s run of defeats at away field has already reached four encounters. Besides, at once five key players “Brammies” will not appear at the pitch in the Tuesday game.
Last time Bolton beat Birmingham at their own turf was five years ago and since then “The Trotters” haven’t been able to succeed across three head-to-heads in a row, having failed the latest two of them. However, taking into account the current shape of the visitors as well as their problems with the crucial performers and results on the road, I presume Bolton must beat their forthcoming opponents which would keep them safe from the relegation zone.
Prediction for the match: Bolton to win.
