Reading vs Bolton Live Score and Live Stream

Preview

Reading faced Bolton in the League One of England on February 17. They played out a 1-1 draw.

Jack Marriott scored the first goal of the game on the 36th minute of the match, tipping the balance in Reading's favor. A goal from Mason Burstow followed, bringing the match to a 1-1 conclusion.

The spotlight turns to the field where Reading and Bolton meet again, 6 months after the previous League One encounter that concluded in a 1-1 stalemate. In impressive form, Reading has claimed wins against Wycombe Wanderers and Wigan, as they seek to carry their form forward with a win against Bolton. However, their defensive frailties have been apparent as they have struggled to keep opponents from scoring, conceding in their last three matches.

Bolton come into this fixture having played out a draw against Lincoln City last Saturday, marking their 7th consecutive unbeaten match.

This League One encounter highlights the attacking players who have stood out for Reading and Bolton throughout the campaign, even in challenging moments. Reading’s offensive unit, with Leam Richardson steering the side, has leaned on Jack Marriott, their main scorer, and Lewis Wing, as they continue to drive the team’s attacking efforts forward. In League One, Marriott has been Reading’s standout scorer with fifteen goals, as Wing continues to lead their creative efforts in the tournament with eight assists. Adding further support are Kamari Doyle, Daniel Kyerewaa and Charlie Savage, who have combined to deliver key goals and assists for the team.

Meanwhile, Bolton’s attacking options, guided by Steven Schumacher, have been bolstered by Amario Cozier-Duberry and Mason Burstow, the team’s top scorer, both of whom have contributed crucial goals and assists. Burstow has already scored eight goals in League One this season, while Cozier-Duberry has been their leading creator in the competition with eight assists.
