Leeds United v Bolton Wanderers Record


Bolton Wanderers FC
Founded: 1874
Ground: Toughsheet Community Stadium

Bolton Wanderers, founded in 1874, are one of the original 12 Football League clubs and have a proud history including four FA Cup victories. Based in Greater Manchester, they now play at the modern Toughsheet Community Stadium (formerly Macron and Reebok Stadium).

Leeds United have faced Bolton in numerous hard-fought matches across the Premier League and Championship. A memorable 4-1 win in 2003 was one of their last victories before Premier League relegation, and they clashed again during Leeds’ return push in the late 2010s.
