History of the Bolton Wanderers v Fulham fixture

Bolton Wdrs. prepare to entertain Fulham at Reebok Stadium on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The The Trotters are clearly on top, having won 17 and lost only 6 of the 32 games.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Reebok Stadium was just last season, in January 2003, when they played out a goalless draw in a Premiership match.
