Bolton have been the stronger team lately, winning most of their recent matches and only slipping once, while Charlton are struggling - they haven't won any of their last five games, drawing three and losing two. That makes Bolton look like the team in better shape going into this one.

Recent meetings between these two have often been lively, with several goals in some of them, so this could be an open game rather than a tight, cautious one. Even so, Bolton's better form and home advantage point toward a Bolton win.
