Match Preview

Bolton followed up their 1-0 first-leg triumph over Bradford with a victory by the same scoreline last week, as Xavier Simons put the tie beyond any doubt with a late goal from the bench. Steven Schumacher's men have restored confidence with successive clean sheets in the play-offs after going winless in three to end the regular season.

While Stockport's first-leg triumph over Stevenage had a touch of fortune about it, there was no luck involved as the Hatters cruised to a 2-0 victory on home turf in the second leg. Dave Challinor's men return to Wembley looking to avenge April's defeat to Luton in the EFL Trophy. With four wins from their last five outings, they are well-placed to do so.
