League One stats and tips
Luton v Bradford - Over / Under 1.5 Goals - under
There are some football fans that enjoy the tension of a low-scoring game, and they would be well advised to keep an eye on Luton Town v Bradford City. Each of Luton Town's last 3 League One outings has had under 1.5 goals, and that streak may go on for some time yet.
Port Vale v Burton - Both Teams To Score - no
If the form book is to be believed, we can predict at least one set of players to earn a clean sheet at Vale Park on Saturday, as D. Moore and G. Bowyer's teams meet. Port Vale have had the most fixtures where one team or more has not scored (i.e. BTTS no) in League One so far this campaign - 19 out of 27 played. Both gaffers will just be praying it isn't their side that fails to register.
AFC Wim v Reading - Both Teams To Score & Result - draw
The Cherry Red Records Stadium is the backdrop as Reading and AFC Wimbledon meet on Saturday afternoon, in what might just be a real crowd-pleaser. L. Richardson's side have the most BTTS + draws of any side in the league - 10 in 28 outings. An extension of that record is available at 4.50.
Bolton v Barnsley - Win / Draw / Win - home win
Evidentally a lot of our tipsters have a resounding belief in S. Schumacher and his chances of delivering victory for Bolton Wanderers on Saturday afternoon. 12 have predicted him to inspire his side to emerge victorious from their encounter with Barnsley. Surely the home gaffer won't fail to deliver, will he?
Huddersfield v Blackpool - Win / Draw / Win - home win
Like most fans around the globe, Huddersfield Town's adoring followers have come to expect a lot from their team and, in the opinion of our tipsters, they may not be disappointed on Saturday afternoon. 13 of these bettors are tipping that G. Lee's XI will get the win as I. Evatt's Blackpool visit John Smith's Stadium. Will the wisdom of the crowd be proved correct? Or could we be set for a big upset?
Mansfield v Exeter - Double Chance - home win or draw
N. Clough and his Mansfield Town team have developed a useful habit of claiming something from pretty much every League One fixture they play. They're unbeaten in 7 in League One now, so G. Caldwell and his Exeter City team will need to be on top of their game if they're going to get anything at One Call Stadium on Saturday.
Northampton v Stevenage - Double Chance - away win or draw
Northampton Town have consistently struggled against Stevenage in the league in recent years. The two sides have met on 6 occasions since 2023, and Stevenage have remained unbeaten in them all. Saturday's game at Sixfields Stadium could be a tricky one for K. Nolan & co.
Peterborough v Wigan - Double Chance - home win or draw
Following your football club can be a thankless task, and Wigan Athletic’s long-suffering follows know that better than most at the moment. Their club, led by R. Lowe, has not won any of their last 6 League One matches, and there will be little hope they can end that run against Peterborough United at ABAX Stadium on Saturday afternoon. Backing opposition boss L. Williams to add to their misery by leading his side to either a win or draw is available at top odds of 1.36.
Plymouth v Lincoln - Double Chance - away win or draw
Happy days! It has now been a long while since Lincoln City’s joyous followers watched their team lose in League One. M. Skubala’s squad is now unbeaten in 12 outings, and he will be expecting that they can keep going against Plymouth Argyle at Home Park on Saturday afternoon. Best value odds of 1.44 can be taken advantage of to back Lincoln City the double chance market.
Rotherham v Cardiff - Double Chance - away win or draw
B. Barry-Murphy and his Cardiff City side have found a convenient way of getting something from just about every League One match they play. They're unbeaten in 9 in League One now, so M. Hamshaw and his Rotherham United charges will have to be at their best if they're going to get anything at AESSEAL New York Stadium on Saturday.
Stockport v L Orient - Win / Draw / Win - home win
Most of us have heard of 'the wisdom of the crowd', and our hive of members may just be wiser than most. On Saturday, 19 have backed Stockport County to win against Leyton Orient at Edgeley Park. Backing the home win at odds of 1.65 from the bookies, they'll be keeping fingers crossed that D. Challinor inspires his troops and delivers that all-important home win.
Wycombe v Doncaster - Over / Under 5.5 Goals - over
Doncaster Rovers have been League One's entertainers this term, at least in when it comes to producing high scoring games. No other side comes close to their record of having been involved in 4 over 5.5 goal games this campaign. Can they make that 5 when they play Wycombe Wanderers on Saturday afternoon? With odds of 15.00 on offer, it could be worth backing.
Mansfield v Peterborough - Half Time / Full Time - home+home
Peterborough United will be looking to avoid adding to the 10 games they have already been losing at both halftime and fulltime this season when they face Mansfield Town on Tuesday. L. Williams's side already top the rest of League One in that area, and won't want to make it any worse. Opposing boss N. Clough may not feel the same way, however.
Wigan v Reading - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under
Low scoring fixtures aren't always entirely dull, but fans of Wigan Athletic have had lots of chances to test that theory this season. 20 of their side's games in League One have finished with under 2.5 goals so far - the most in the competition. Will L. Richardson and his Reading team be capable of adding some goalmouth action into this fixture on Tuesday? Or will it be same old same old?
Stevenage v Huddersfield - Both Teams To Score & Result -

AFC Wim v Stockport - Over / Under 4.5 Goals - under
We all love a game in which more than 4 goals fly in, but Stockport County's dedicated supporters have now waited 8 matches to watch their team deliver one. A frustrating statistic in anyone's book.

With odds of 1.07 on there being under 4.5 goals, the bookmakers certainly don’t think so.
