Bolton take on Wycombe tomorrow – we’re back on home soil we fare better than on the road – but our opponents are doing very well this season.
Both sides will also likely have a common opponent in the weather. Storm Dennis (brace yourselves for the Politic headlines) is set to bring a lot of rain on Saturday afternoon and quite a bit of wind too, conditions that might not be conducive to a quality game. Wycombe have been struggling on the road recently so despite their strong league position, we could do with taking advantage here.
