Fleetwood Town will be hosting Bolton Wanderers at Highbury Stadium in a League One football match scheduled to take place this Tuesday.
Currently, Fleetwood Town rank 22nd in the standings with 15 points but have played a game fewer than many other teams. Simon Grayson left the camp last month 24th and the fans had expectations for a difference.
Fleetwood then secured a draw away at AFC Wimbledon but they then have been on 11 matches winless streak across all competitions having subsequent defeats to Tuesday’s opponents in the EFL Trophy and Accrington Stanley in League One.
Caretaker boss Stephen Crainey, though not stay in the role long term will want to salvage the poor state of his side. Fleetwood come to this fixture on the back of 5-1 League One losing effort in their last game against Accrington Stanley with Harrison Biggins getting the only goal.
Fleetwood Town have not managed to hold out for a full 90 minutes keeping a clean sheet only once and have been scored against in 6 of their previous 6 games, letting in 17 goals on the way.
On the other hand, the visiting team remains unbeaten in three matches in all competitions and this comes after back-to-back defeats against Stockport County and Wycombe Wanderers. Bolton will now be looking to extend this and just after a week in the EFL Trophy against Fleetwood where they won in a 1-0 result.
Bolton Wanderers now sit just eight points adrift of the playoffs at the 14 spot with 26 points having won in 7 fixtures drawn in 5 and lost 8 times. Coming to this match, Ian Evatt will be looking to move away from the relegation zone.
Fleetwood Town vs Bolton Wanderers head to head
