Bolton Wanderers could strengthen their playoff prospects when they welcome second-bottom Accrington Stanley in Tuesday’s League One rescheduled encounter at the University of Bolton Stadium. The Wanderers will not rise higher than fifth with a win over the struggling side, who have lost four on the trot in the third tier.
Bolton are in a three-way battle to make the last two playoff spots in League Two with three games remaining, although Derby County and Peterborough United have played 44 games. The Trotters are tied on 75 points with Derby, with Peterborough just two points shy of the teams in fifth and sixth following two losses in their last three games.
Ian Evatt’s men are undefeated in their last six league games, albeit only securing victories in half of those games, and a triumph on Tuesday creates much-needed separation from the Rams and seventh-placed Peterborough.
Despite not finding the back of the net by more than one goal since mid-March, Bolton have made themselves hard to score against, with that defensive strength the foundation for a sustained playoff push. They have conceded the fewest home goals in League One (12) and have the sixth-best record of everyone in the league in front of their fans, and victory on Tuesday takes them to fifth in that particular table.

Bolton vs Accrington Team News
Evatt is unlikely to change the team that beat Shrewsbury Town 1-0 on Saturday, utilising a 3-4-1-2 on Tuesday. Josh Sheehan was the game’s match-winner, and the midfield man should keep his spot in Bolton’s lineup.
Coleman lost Tommy Leigh to a 43rd-minute injury at Portsmouth on Saturday, making the midfielder a doubt for the midweek clash. The Accrington boss is expected to stick to his usual 4-2-3-1 system at the University of Bolton Stadium.
