Bolton Wanderers - Mansfield Town betting tip & best odds | 03.12.2024

Bolton Wanderers will host Mansfield Town on Tuesday, December 3, 2024, at the Toughsheet Community Stadium in a League One clash that promises to be exciting. The match is scheduled to kick off at 20:45. Both teams are looking to improve their standings, with Bolton currently sitting 9th in the league table, while Mansfield is in 10th place. With only two points separating the sides, the stakes are high for this encounter.

Our Betting Predictions for the Match

For this match, our primary betting tip is a home win for Bolton Wanderers. Given their superior form and home advantage, we believe they will secure all three points against Mansfield Town. Bolton has shown resilience at home, with a record of 4 wins, 2 draws, and 2 defeats. They come into this match after a solid 2-1 victory over Blackpool FC, which will undoubtedly boost their confidence.

In terms of the second betting tip, we suggest betting on "Both Teams to Score: No." Bolton has a slightly leaky defense, conceding 25 goals so far, but their attacking prowess with 24 goals scored indicates that they will likely dominate the match. Conversely, Mansfield Town has struggled offensively in their recent outings, scoring only 20 goals in the league. They were unable to find the net in their last match against Bristol Rovers, which ended in a 0-1 defeat. Therefore, it’s reasonable to predict that while Bolton may score, Mansfield might not find the back of the net.

Best Betting Odds Available

As of now, specific odds for the match have yet to be released. However, based on our experience with bookmakers, we anticipate that a home win for Bolton Wanderers will attract favorable odds. Similarly, the "Both Teams to Score: No" market is likely to present competitive odds, given the recent performances of both teams. It's always advisable to check multiple bookmakers for the best value, as odds can vary significantly across platforms.

Current Form of Bolton Wanderers

Bolton Wanderers have been performing well lately, securing three wins in their last five matches, with no draws and two defeats. Their most recent result was a 2-1 victory over Blackpool FC, which showcased their attacking potential and tactical discipline under the guidance of coach Ian Ross Evatt. With a total of 24 goals scored and 25 conceded, Bolton’s goal difference is slightly negative, but they possess a strong home record, which is crucial for this upcoming match. Evatt will be keen to harness this momentum and push for a win that could propel them further up the league table.

How is Mansfield Town Currently Doing?

Mansfield Town, under the management of Nigel Howard Clough, has had a mixed bag of results recently. They have recorded two wins, one draw, and two losses in their last five matches. Their last outing ended in disappointment, as they lost 0-1 at home to Bristol Rovers. This loss highlighted some issues in their attacking capabilities, with only 20 goals scored this season and a defense that has allowed 16 goals. Mansfield's away record is solid, with 4 wins out of 6 games, but they will need to find a way to break down Bolton's defense to secure any points. Clough will be looking to instill confidence in his players ahead of this challenging fixture.

The Last Direct Duels

In the last five meetings between Bolton Wanderers and Mansfield Town across all competitions, Bolton has dominated with 4 wins and 1 draw, indicating a strong historical advantage. The last encounter ended dramatically, with Bolton winning 5-4 on penalties after a 1-1 draw in regulation time. This record suggests that Bolton has the psychological edge going into this match, making them the favorites to win once again.

Conclusion: Who Will Emerge Victorious?

Given the current forms of both teams, Bolton Wanderers appear to be the favorites going into this clash. Their recent home victory and the historical head-to-head success provide a strong foundation for our prediction of a home win. While Mansfield Town has shown flashes of brilliance, their recent struggles, especially in attack, may hinder their chances of taking points away from home. Therefore, we recommend placing a bet on Bolton to win and on "Both Teams to Score: No."
