Bolton Wanderers v Doncaster Rovers
Football : England: League One
Venue: Toughsheet Community Stadium
Tuesday 17th March 2026, 1945hrs (GMT)

---

Bolton Wanderers were held to a frustrating 2-2 draw away from home by Rotherham United on the weekend in League One but nevertheless, The Trotters’ unbeaten run in the domestic third tier extended to an impressive 12 matches overall ahead of this upcoming midweek clash against Doncaster Rovers.

Seven wins within these previous 12 games have helped Bolton Wanderers remain in firm contention for a play-off spot with the hosts sitting in 3rd place and nine points above 7th placed Stockport County.

A solid and impressive home record which stands at 12-5-1 34/15 should serve Bolton Wanderers well once again at the Toughsheet Community Stadium where Steven Schumacher’s side look to extend their unbeaten run on home soil to seven games.

Doncaster Rovers meanwhile occupy 17th place in the League One table despite recording a 2-1 home win against relegation threatened Blackpool which halted a worrying three-game winless run in League One.

The visitors have managed to capture three wins within their last seven games in the third tier which has helped Grant McCann’s side to remain at arms-length from the bottom four clubs, two of these wins being on home soil though at the Keepmoat Stadium.

However, an away record of 5-2-11 16/32 suggests Rovers may struggle to keep pace with an in-form Bolton Wanderers outfit on Tuesday night especially as recent meetings have gone in favour of the hosts.

The Betting Verdict

Bolton Wanderers have won two of the last three meetings against Doncaster Rovers and the hosts will be keen to assert their authority on their own patch once again on Tuesday night.

Bolton Wanderers 2-1 Doncaster Rovers
