Bolton Wanderers defender Abdoulaye Meite is confident that Sam Allardyce's side will return to winning ways at Everton this weekend.

Bolton have failed to win any of their last three Premiership encounters and threw away a two-goal lead in last weekend's 2-2 draw at Sheffield United.

"We were dumb to let a two-goal lead slip," the Ivory Coast international admitted to the Manchester Evening News.

"But we know that with a little more confidence we can get back to winning matches.

"Our away form is very good. With only one defeat away from Bolton, teams are finding it difficult to play against us.

"I have been told the atmosphere will be very passionate at Everton. I love the English grounds for their atmosphere.

"Everton is a very traditional club with some very good players. They are similar to us in the fact that they want to break into the top six on a regular basis.

"They have had a bad run of results recently, so we know we have to be at our best to avoid a backlash from their players."
