Bolton Wanderers are heavily favoured to win their Boxing Day clash against Rotherham United, according to the bookmakers. The odds reflect this, with Bolton priced at 1.36 for a home win, a draw at 4.75, and an away win at a distant 7.50. This suggests a high probability of a Bolton victory, which aligns with the team's strong league position and recent form. Looking at the Asian Handicap, Bolton is offered at -1.25, with odds of 0.83, suggesting a comfortable win is anticipated. Rotherham's odds on the Asian Handicap are at 1.03. This indicates that the market expects Bolton to win by at least two goals. The Over/Under market is set at 2.75 goals. The odds on Over are at 0.83 and Under at 1.03. This also points to a high-scoring game, the odds suggest that more than three goals are expected in the match. Bolton's goal-scoring form, coupled with Rotherham's defensive frailties, supports this prediction. Bolton Wanderers currently sit sixth in the league, with a record of nine wins, seven draws, and four losses. Their home form has been consistent, with a positive goal difference. In contrast, Rotherham United is struggling, positioned 18th in the league. Their recent away form has been particularly poor, as shown by losses to Huddersfield Town and Plymouth Argyle. Rotherham's defensive record is also concerning, having conceded more goals than they have scored. Bolton's recent form further strengthens the argument for a home win. They have won three of their last five matches in all competitions, including a dominant 3-0 victory against Bradford City. Rotherham, on the other hand, have lost three of their last five matches, with a significant 3-0 defeat to Blackpool. The contrasting form of the two teams makes Bolton a clear favourite. Considering the team's positions in the league, recent form, and the odds provided by the bookmakers, the prediction is a home win for Bolton Wanderers with Over 2.75 goals scored. The Asian Handicap also leans heavily toward a Bolton victory. The weight of evidence suggests that Bolton will dominate this match. The odds suggest a high-scoring match, given Rotherham's defensive vulnerabilities and Bolton's attacking prowess.
