Match Info

Bolton Wanderers edged a tight local encounter with a 1-0 away win against Wigan Athletic at the DW Stadium in a League One derby on January 17, 2026. The match, which kicked off at 20:30, was settled by a solitary goal in the first half, giving Bolton a valuable three points in the promotion race. The only goal came from a defensive error, as Bolton's striker pounced on a loose backpass to round the goalkeeper and slot home. Wigan dominated possession for large periods but found Bolton's defense, led by their commanding center-back, impossible to break down. The win solidified Bolton's position in the automatic promotion spots, while Wigan's playoff hopes suffered a setback in a game where they lacked a cutting edge.
