History of the Bolton Wanderers v Leicester City fixture

Bolton Wdrs. prepare to entertain Leicester City at Reebok Stadium on Sunday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Trotters are clearly on top, having won 17 and lost only 6 of the 30 games.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Reebok Stadium was two seasons ago, in December 2001, where the two teams cancelled each other out in an enthralling 2-2 draw in a Premiership match.
