Bolton Wanderers return to action in League One this weekend when they travel to take on Cambridge United.
The Whites travel to the Abbey Stadium this Saturday aiming to return to winning ways. They travel to take on the U's in League One on the back of losses to Oxford United and most recently Barnsley in the FA Cup last weekend.
Bolton still sit sixth in the table, however, and know they will maintain their place in the play-offs with victory. Cambridge meanwhile are 18th in the standings, but five points clear of the drop zone.

After being knocked out of the FA Cup last Saturday, Wanderers now have a free weekend coming up towards the end of the month. The weekend of November 26 will be when the second round of the competition takes place.
One League One match which is yet to be rescheduled is the trip to Fratton Park to take on Portsmouth. The clash was originally due to take place in September during the international break, but was postponed owing to call-ups.
The possibility of the encounter taking place over the final weekend in November has been shelved however owing to Pompey's continuing involvement in the FA Cup. Following the first round victory over Hereford, Portsmouth have been drawn against fellow League One side MK Dons in the second stage.
The game is yet to be officially rearranged, though it appears likely that the game will now be played in 2023, with the usual busy festive fixture list to come in December. Another Bolton match could yet have a fresh date, should the circumstances prevail.
The third round of the FA Cup is set to take place over the weekend of Saturday, January 7 next year. It is the stage of the competition where sides in the Championship and Premier League enter the fray.
That weekend, Wanderers are poised to take on Forest Green Rovers at the University of Bolton Stadium. The Gloucestershire side beat the Whites 1-0 earlier this season in the reverse fixture.
Forest Green are still in the FA Cup after beating South Shields away in the first round, and have been drawn against Alvechurch in the next stage of the competition. Should they overcome the non-league side, they would be in FA Cup action when they would be due to travel and take on Wanderers.
It means that game could well be rescheduled too for later in 2023, as could be the case for the Pompey fixture. The calendar is far from set in stone with one game definitely needing to be rearranged, and another one could potentially follow.
