Bolton Wanderers v Bury
With only 6.8 miles between them geographically, a local derby is on the cards for Bolton and Bury. In the previous campaign, both sides finished mid-table. Bolton took a 14th placed Championship finish, whilst Bury sat comfortably in League Two’s 12th position.
Neither side have had much fortune over the last couple of seasons, and this match could end up being a close one. League Two Bury scored the highest amount of goals outside of the top four last season whereas Bolton were languishing down towards the bottom of that particular statistic table.
Can Bury cause an upset?
Prediction: 3-2 home win.
