22/11/2022 12:00 am
Bolton Wanderers and Barrow face off on Tuesday at the University of Bolton Stadium in the EFL Trophy’s round of 16. The two teams returned to winning ways last time and will be eager to build on those wins, which should make for an absorbing contest.
On Saturday, Bolton Wanderers defeated Fleetwood Town, 2-1, in a League One match. Carlos Mendes opened the scoring for the visitors after 15 minutes, but Bolton responded with goals from Conor Bradley and Oladapo Afolayan in the second half to earn the three points.
The Trotters are now fifth in the league table with 31 points—10 behind Ipswich Town, who occupy automatic promotion positions.
Next is a trip to Highbury Stadium to face an opponent against whom Bolton has won only once in five meetings since their initial triumph in 2010.
The hosts have lost two consecutive games at home and will be eager to return to winning ways as they look to get back into top form ahead of the winter break.
Barrow won 3-1 against Hartlepool United at home on Saturday. Pete Wild’s team raced to a three-goal lead early in the match through goals from Josh Gordon, Ben Whitfield, and Billy Waters. Christopher Missilou scored for Pools in the 77th minute.
Barrow now sits fourth in League Two after 19 rounds, with four points separating them from Northampton Town in fifth place.
Having lost three of their last four away matches, Tranmere Rovers are enduring a rough patch, although they did win their most recent away game in the EFL Trophy.

Bolton Wanderers Team News
It remains to be seen whether Bolton Wanderers’ Kyle Dempsey will return to the lineup for this contest after serving a one-game suspension in the victory over Fleetwood Town on Saturday. Oladapo Afolayan scored in the last edition of this fixture, and he’ll be aiming to deliver the goods for the hosts once again, having recently ended a four-match goal drought.
