Wigan Athletic defender Emmerson Boyce remains confident that they will avoid relegation.

The Latics are without a win since early December, during which time they have picked up just four points from nine matches and are currently bottom of the table.

"We need to start picking up the three points now because we are getting too far behind," said the 32-year-old told Latics Player.

"We are bottom of the league and even though we are playing well we need to start picking up results because I'd rather be playing badly and picking up the points to move us up the table.

"We have been through it many times in the last couple of years and we need to learn from it and not get cast adrift so quickly.

"The last couple of seasons we have pulled ourselves clear we are still confident we can get results.

"If we play like we did (in the weekend's 1-1 draw against Everton) for the rest of the season I am sure we will pick up the points we need.

"But Bolton is a massive game which neither side can afford to lose, but we can go there full of confidence after our result.

"We look at it as a game we need to win. There is a big confidence, we just need to learn how to grind out results now.

"Our heads are up and we can't wait for the next game to come along."
