Bolton Wanderers vs. Wrexham – forecast, team updates, starting lineups
Bolton Wanderers and Wrexham will both be targeting back-to-back league victories when they face off at the Toughsheet Community Stadium on Sunday.
The Trotters began their League One campaign with a narrow win over Leyton Orient, while Wrexham prevailed in a five-goal thriller against Wycombe Wanderers.
Bolton are competing in their fourth consecutive League One campaign after losing to Oxford United in last season’s playoff final.
The Trotters have ultimately put that disappointment behind them and are now focusing on mounting a promotion bid to return to the Championship for the first time since 2018-19.
They would have been pleased to make a positive start to the 2024-25 campaign, claiming a 2-1 away win over Leyton Orient thanks to goals from Dion Charles and Victor Adeboyejo.
Bolton experienced another successful outing in Tuesday’s EFL Cup tie against Mansfield Town, holding their nerve to prevail in a penalty shootout after playing out a 1-1 draw in regulation time.
They will be targeting more success in their first league meeting with Wrexham since recording a 1-0 away victory in a fourth-tier clash in May 1988.
