League One stats and tips
Barnsley v Northampton - Both Teams To Score - yes
Barnsley fans have come to expect action at each end when their team plays in League One, with both sides having found the net in every one of their last 6 games. Northampton Town on Saturday lunch time may well be another ding-dong battle.
Derby v Carlisle - Win / Draw / Win - home win
A simple tally suggests our tipsters have a great deal of belief in Paul Warne and his ability to deliver a win for Derby County on Saturday lunch time. 20 have predicted him to guide his team to win against Carlisle United. Will he repay the trust placed in him? We'll know by the end of the 90.
Exeter v Oxford Utd - Double Chance - home win or draw
G. Caldwell and his Exeter City side have gained a useful knack of getting something from just about every League One match they play. They're unbeaten in 9 in League One now, so Des Buckingham and his Oxford United side will have their work cut out if they're to stand any chance at St James Park on Saturday.
Fleetwood v Burton - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - over
Burton Albion's recent League One games have been packed with goalmouth action. Every one of their last 5 have had over 2.5 goals, and Saturday against Fleetwood Town could well provide more of the same. Fans of both sides will be hoping that M. Paterson and C. Adam send their teams out to go for glory.
Lincoln v Portsmouth - Both Teams To Score - yes
Portsmouth fans have been spoilt with entertainment at each end when their team plays in League One, with both teams having found the net in all of their last 6 outings. Lincoln City on Saturday lunch time may well be another thriller.
Peterborough v Bolton - Double Chance - away win or draw
We all dream of our club suddenly becoming invincible, and for some fans that dream comes true. It has been weeks since Bolton Wanderers’s joyous supporters watched their lads suffer defeat in League One. Ian Evatt’s squad is now unbeaten in 6 outings, and he'll be hopeful that they can extend that run against Peterborough United at ABAX Stadium on Saturday lunch time. Top odds of 1.44 are available to back Bolton Wanderers to get the win or the draw.
Port Vale v Cambridge - Win / Draw / Win - away win
It's never easy to end a losing run, but that's the task facing Port Vale boss Darren Moore on Saturday. His players face Cambridge United having been beaten in each of their last 4 League One outings.
Reading v Blackpool - Half Time / Full Time - away / away
Fans of the half time/full time market will be keeping their eye on Blackpool. Neil Critchley's side has been remarkably commanding in recent League One games, leading at HT in each of their last 4 and going on to win them all at full time. Reading on Saturday lunch time will be one to watch.
Shrewsbury v L Orient - Win / Draw / Win - away win
Leyton Orient have enjoyed success against Shrewsbury Town in the League One of late, with their streak now extending to 5 straight wins against them. Paul Hurst will be doing all he can to turn the tide, while Richard Wellens will be hopeful of more of the same on Saturday lunch time.
Stevenage v Cheltenham - Over / Under 4.5 Goals - under
Cheltenham Town's recent outings in League One have delivered decent entertainment, and a fair amount of goals, but it has been some time since Darrell Clarke's players treated their fans to a ding-dong battle with goals galore. There have been no more than 4 goals in each of their last 14 outings.
Wigan v Bristol R - Over / Under 4.5 Goals - under
The 5+ goal game may be a rare beast, but Wigan Athletic's loyal followers have now waited 9 games to watch their team take part in one. Certainly they could be forgiven for craving some proper excitement by now. Will the run be broken on Saturday lunch time, as they face Matt Taylor's Bristol Rovers at DW Stadium? With odds of 1.12 on there being 4 goals or fewer being scored, the bookmakers clearly have their doubts.
Wycombe v Charlton - Double Chance - away win or draw
Nathan Jones and his Charlton Athletic troops have developed a convenient habit of getting something from pretty much every League One match they play. They're unbeaten in 14 in League One now, so M. Bloomfield and his Wycombe Wanderers charges will need to be on top of their game if they're to get the win at Adams Park on Saturday.
