Bolton Wanderers - Bradford City

Before heading out in search of more league points against Mansfield Town next Tuesday, December 9th, Steven Schumacher's men face Vertu Trophy and FA Cup matches. First up, Bradford City face the Vertu Trophy last-32 at the Toughsheet Community Stadium tomorrow (Tuesday evening), before a trip to the County Ground on Saturday to face League Two heavyweights in the FA Cup second round. Boasting a 100% record from the group stage, Wanderers enter the Vertu Trophy knockout stages with another clean sheet. Thierry Gale remains suspended after his red card against Rotherham United, but Bolton have a fully fit squad to choose from against Bradford City. Jordi Osei-Tutu shrugged off a weak leg against Luton Town, and there could be an opportunity for Victor Adeboyejo to get his first competitive minutes since February following his recent return to training. The Nigerian striker has been out since February but had already anticipated this match as his return to action. Will Forrester is also expected to make his second appearance of the season, after facing Oldham Athletic in the final group game. The Wanderers – winners of the trophy in 2023 – reached the quarter-finals last season and will secure a round of 16 match if they overcome Bradford, who ended the Whites' eight-game winning streak with a goalless draw in their last League One away game. Both teams are likely to be significantly changed from last month's meeting, but the Wanderers have the squad depth to cope with the situation, while also looking to offer further opportunities to players aiming for a league title and who have already made their mark in this season's Trophy, leading the Wanderers to three consecutive wins and 10 goals in the group stage. Bolton are worth significantly more than their opponents at 19,70 million vs 6,10 million and are playing this second round of the Cup in their home stadium, with the advantage of a home crowd. In this case, I choose the 1 sign with possible 1-0/2-0.
