Fleetwood Town will face off against Phil Parkinson’s Bolton Wanderers at Macron Stadium this weekend for the fourth EFL League One fixture of the season. Kick off at 3:00pm.
Coming from a midweek win, and their first win under Uwe Rosler, Fleetwood will be ready for their test against top of the league Bolton Wanderers
Rosler and the Cod Army will be looking forward to their test against top of the league, Bolton Wanderers this weekend after performing brilliantly against newly promoted side Oxford United in the week.
Town, not only managed to secure their first win of the season on Wednesday, they managed to keep a clean sheet as well, even though Rosler prefers attacking to defending. The game was swayed by two goals, the first coming from David Ball, the second coming from Ashley Hunter.
Ball’s 50th minute opener started off the side’s persuasive second half, after being held back for the first 45 minutes. Substitute Hunter doubled Town’s lead on the day to make the game 2-0 and secure the win bringing the side up to 8thplace.
In contrast, Parkinson’s Bolton showed dominance yet again against Bristol Rovers on Wednesday night after a 2-1 victory away from home.
Goals from Josh Vela and Jay Spearing secured another three points for the Trotters and ensured that they would take the first spot on the league table after three games.
