History of the Derby County v Bolton Wanderers fixture

Bolton Wdrs. travel to take on Derby County at Pride Park on Saturday afternoon, and have come away with little in previous meetings, having been beaten a depressing 39 out of 60 times.

The last time the two teams met at Derby County was back in December 2001, over five years ago, the Rams carving out a narrow 1 - 0 victory in a Premiership match.
