Bolton Wanderers F.C.–Wigan Athletic F.C. rivalry
The fixture between Bolton Wanderers and Wigan Athletic is an English football rivalry played between The Two clubs.
The two stadiums, the Reebok Stadium and the DW Stadium are separated by just 8 miles, creating a rivalry between the two sets of supporters. The fans of both clubs both consider the other to be one of their main footballing rivals, leading to a heated atmosphere at these matches. The derby has been contested throughout the divisions over the years including the Football League, and more recently the Premier League. However, due to Bolton's relegation, there will be no league meeting between the clubs in the 2012–13 season.
In their most recent meeting, 17 Wigan Athleic supporters were banned by the club for several years as flares were set off during the Latics 2-1 away win.
