Team News

Bolton
Oxford
  • Bolton are likely to be unchanged from their second leg semi-final against Barnsley.
  • Oxford could stick with the same starting XI for the fourth game running.

Prediction

  • Despite a nervy end to their second leg semi-final against Barnsley, Bolton come into to the Wembley showpiece in excellent form - losing just twice in the best part of three months.
  • Ian Evatt's side are favourites to reach the Championship and hammered Oxford 5-0 back in March.
  • Oxford will be hoping it's third time lucky in their bid to end their 25-year wait for second-tier football.
  • The U's have endured play-off heartache twice in the last five years and are looking to end a three-match losing run at the national stadium, including a 2-1 defeat to Wycombe in this exact fixture in 2020.
