Football – England – League One Betting Tips

Third placed Bolton Wanderers could leapfrog Sheffield United into second place in League One if they take all three points against Gillingham and having won their last three league matches on the trot, Monday night’s hosts look to be in the box-seat ahead of this encounter.

Indeed, The Trotters have put together an impressive run of results in recent weeks as they’ve won eight of their last nine in the English third tier with their only blemish during this sequence being a 1-0 defeat away at Peterborough United.

But with an overall home record that stands at  6-3-1 13/6 that includes four wins on the trot recently over Oldham Athletic, Port Vale, Millwall and Coventry City in addition to possessing the best defensive record on home turf, Bolton look a solid bet bere.

Visitors Gillingham currently sit in 16th place in League One as their home form has over-shadowed their exploits on the road as they’ve won four of their seven victories at their Priestfield ground.

The Gills head into this clash on the back of three league wins from their last four with wins gathered against Northampton Town, Walsall and Rochdale although it should be pointed out that two of these three recent wins were on home turf.

Away from home, Gillingham hold a rather more circumspect record of  3-1-6 14/21 with just one away win from their last seven on the road which was gained in a 2-1 win at 17th placed Walsall, but Gillingham have failed to keep a single clean sheet on their travels so far this season which is another reason to give Bolton the nod here I feel.
