Footymad preview History of the Bolton Wanderers v Sunderland fixture

Sunderland face a trip to Bolton Wanderers at Reebok Stadium on Saturday afternoon, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Black Cats will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them lose 35 and win only 15 of the 69 games.

The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in May 2011, with Sunderland inflicting a narrow 1-2 defeat upon the Trotters in a Premier League match.

Recent respective form guides

Bolton Wanderers's woeful home form means they have chalked up just a single victory, with 5 defeats, from the last six. While Trotters have scored 6, a worringly large 18 have been leaked at the other end.

Sunderland's away form is none too clever either, seeing them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. A generous 6 goals have been both scored and conceded in this period.

Bolton Wanderers are stuck down in the relegation zone of Barclays Premier League with a return of just 6 points from their 8 games thus far.

Sunderland are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 6 points from 8 matches.

FootyMad's prediction ...

Not a lot has been going right generally for Sunderland on their travels as of late, but we can certainly see them gleaning a point from their game against Bolton Wanderers. No-score draw
