Bolton Wanderers look to end a losing run of four Championship games as they host Cardiff City on Saturday afternoon.

Steven Schumacher's team continue to be in games, but the quality of the league has come back to bite them on too many occasions, losing to West Ham United in midweek. The Wanderers boss believes results will come, and could do with a big one this weekend.

Cardiff City came up with Bolton from League One last season, but unlike their hosts, have yet to win a Championship game this season. The Welsh side head to the Whites knowing the importance of this game, with the six-point feel valid for both teams.
