Best Tip: Over 1.5 goals

The statistics suggest we don't have an obvious winner for this clash, but there's plenty of reasons to believe that Bolton and Cambridge will score at least a couple of goals between them. That has been the case when they've gone head-to-head historically, and neither Ian Evatt or Garry Monk has subjected their supporters to too many 0-0s lately either. The bookmakers are predicting over 1.5 goals too, with odds of 1.22 equating to about a 81% probability.
