Bolton v Sunderland Odds: Wanderers slight favourites at the Reebok

Bolton picked up just their second win of the Premier League season last weekend when they defeated Wigan 3-1 at the DW Stadium. The three points, however, were not enough to lift them out of the relegation zone and they are currently in 18th with six points.

Bolton have had the toughest starting schedule of any Premier League side. Five of their eight games have been against Man City, Liverpool, Man United, Arsenal and Chelsea. Not many teams will pick up points against that opposition.

The Trotters are favourites to pick up the win against Sunderland, priced at 15/13 with Unibet, as they host the team just above them in the Premier League table at the Reebok on Saturday. Sunderland, offered at 23/10 for the win by Unibet, have struggled to find results recently themselves and have picked up just as many points as Bolton.

They have only recorded one victory, a win over Stoke, and relied on a handful of draws to keep themselves out of the relegation zone. Manager Steve Bruce is definitely in the hot seat at the moment and he must get this team to start winning games and climbing up the table if he wants to hold onto his job.

In their most recent match, the Blacks Cats set out to try and defend against Arsenal but it is likely Bruce will give them a lot more freedom against Bolton. The Trotters haven’t won at home all season but Owen Coyle will see this game as a must win against the opposition and he will set his team out to attack. Expect this to be a very open game and there could be a few goals involved. Each of both side’s last five Premier League games have had more than two goals so Over 2.5 goals at 13/14 with Unibet.com is a decent bet for this game.

In predicting a winner, Bolton’s win last Saturday should have given the team a boost of confidence and they should go on to win this game. Playing at home against a Sunderland side who have lost their last two on the road, Bolton look good value at 15/13 with Unibet.

Tip #1: Back Bolton to win at 15/13 with Unibet
