History of the Everton v Bolton Wanderers fixture

Everton prepare to entertain Bolton Wanderers at Goodison Park on Wednesday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Toffees are clearly on top, having won 40 and lost only 11 of the 71 games.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Goodison Park was just last season, in November 2006, the Toffees carving out a narrow 1-0 victory in a Premiership match.
