Wanderers face Manchester City side next weekend having been branded as one of the “lesser sides” in the top flight by Blues boss Mark Hughes.
His star-studded outfit has managed to beat the Chelsea and Arsenal this season but have faltered against the likes of Hull City, Burnley, Fulham and Birmingham City.
Hughes knows his side needs to show more grit against teams at the wrong end of the table.
Hughes said: "We know what it takes to win against the bigger sides.
"Once we get the knowledge of how to beat the lesser sides we will be OK."
Speaking about his side’s upcoming clash with Bolton he said: "We want to make the most of the results this week.
"As I have said many times, you cannot have short cuts. At this level, if you don't put in the right level of work you will get beaten.
"We worked exceptionally hard to get this result because the challenge is there for us from the bigger sides.
"At the moment we are making it difficult for them. At some point in the future we want to supersede them.
"We are on a journey. We are not where we need to be yet but we are getting there quickly."
