Tricky away day for Middlesbrough (3rd, 22 pts) as they travel to Bolton (15th, 14 pts), but the visitors' league position tells you they should have more than enough here.

Middlesbrough shade it at 58%, though Bolton won't be pushovers. If you're building an acca, backing Middlesbrough with your stake back if it's a draw is the safer option.
