What channel is Bolton Wanderers v Cardiff City Championship match on? TV coverage, live stream and kick-off time
Bolton Wanderers host Cardiff City in the Championship on Saturday with both sides hoping to improve on their slow starts to the season.
Steven Schumacher's men, who were promoted via the League One play-offs last season, have won just one of their six league games so far to leave them one spot above the relegation zone.
Bolton are currently the favourites to suffer instant relegation back to League One and after their 3-2 defeat at home against West Ham on Tuesday night, they've now lost their last four league games.
Cardiff City secured automatic promotion from League One last season but the Bluebirds are winless after six league outings.
Brian Barry-Murphy's side, who are also among the favourites to be relegated this season, played out a 1-1 draw against Stoke on Tuesday evening and after drawing four and losing two of their six matches, Cardiff are just two places above the relegation zone.
