Burton Albion will be feeling hopeful yet realistic as they prepare for a trip to Bloomfield Road. Home wins occur frequently in League One, and the expectation is that Blackpool and their boss I. Evatt will deliver exactly that as they square up against G. Bowyer's charges on Saturday afternoon. 22 of our bettors have are backing just that, taking advantage of best odds of 2.50, and KickOff's predictive algorithm suggests there's 46.66% chance of them winning with their bets.

Our buzzing hive of football tipsters clearly has a lot of optimism around M. Taylor and his managerial skills, and ability to claim victory for Exeter City on Saturday afternoon. 5 have backed him to inspire his team to win against Leyton Orient. It's all eyes on the home boss now to see if he can indeed deliver.
Reading v Wigan - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - over
We could just get one of the games of the season when Reading and Wigan Athletic go head-to-head on Saturday afternoon in League One. L. Richardson and G. Caldwell's sides have ample talent in attacking areas, and our smart tipsters fancy them to demonstrate that at Madejski Stadium. 5 of them are tipping the match to contain 3 goals or more in total. 2.20 is the highest price available for their suggestion, and it will have plenty of people getting excited.
Stockport v AFC Wim - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - over
We could just get one of the games of the season when Stockport County and AFC Wimbledon clash on Saturday afternoon in League One. D. Challinor and J. Jackson's squads know how to score at this level, and our hive of members fancy them to demonstrate that at Edgeley Park. 5 of them are betting on there to be 3 goals or more in total. 1.85 is the top price we've found for their bet, and our tipsters won't be the only ones taking it at that price.
Wycombe v Port Vale - 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, 71 have seen fit to tip Wycombe Wanderers to get the win versus Port Vale at Adams Park. Backing the home win at odds of 1.60 from some of the UK's leading bookmakers, available on KickOff, they'll be keeping fingers crossed that M. Duff gets his tactics right and brings home that much-needed home win.
Wigan v L Orient - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under
Low scoring fixtures aren't always entirely dull, but fans of Wigan Athletic have had too many chances to test that theory this campaign. 26 of their side's encounters in League One have finished with under 2.5 goals so far - the most in the competition. Will R. Wellens and his Leyton Orient side be able to inject spice into this fixture on Thursday? Or will it be yet another low scoring affair?
Doncaster v Mansfield - Both Teams To Score - yes
When Doncaster Rovers and Mansfield Town have met in the league, goals have generally followed. Both teams have scored in each of their last 5 meetings, so the The Keepmoat Stadium faithful could be in for another thriller on Friday lunch time.
Blackpool v Exeter - Half Time / Full Time - home+home
Exeter City will be hoping not to add to the 14 matches they have already been behind in at both HT and FT this term when they take on Blackpool on Friday. M. Taylor's side already lead the rest of League One in that area, and won't want to make the situation any worse. Opposing boss I. Evatt will be licking his lips, however.
Bradford v Northampton - Win / Draw / Win - home win
Losing streaks can be incredibly difficult to break, but that's exactly what must be done by Northampton Town boss K. Nolan on Friday. His players face Bradford City having lost each of their last 4 League One outings.
Burton v Barnsley - Double Chance - away win or draw
Burton Albion have found something of a bogey team in Barnsley in the League One in recent years. The two clubs have played on 5 occasions since 2023, and Barnsley have been unbeaten in them all. Friday's game at Pirelli Stadium could be a tricky one for G. Bowyer & co.
Huddersfield v Reading - Both Teams To Score - yes
Fans at John Smith's Stadium may be anticipating plenty goalmouth action on Friday, and with good reason if Reading's recent record is anything to go by. Both teams have scored in 27 of their 40 League One fixtures this season, more than any side in the competition.
Lincoln v AFC Wim - Double Chance - home win or draw
M. Skubala and his Lincoln City team have found a useful habit of getting something from pretty much every League One match they play. They're unbeaten in 22 in League One now, so J. Jackson and his AFC Wimbledon charges will need to be on top of their game if they're going to get anything at Sincil Bank on Friday.
Luton v Peterborough - Both Teams To Score - yes
Luton Town supporters have been spoilt with drama at each end when their team plays in League One, with both teams having found the net in every one of their last 7 games. Peterborough United on Friday afternoon should be another goal-fest.
Plymouth v Bolton - Double Chance - home win or draw
T. Cleverley and his Plymouth Argyle team have gained a useful way of getting something from just about every League One match they play. They're unbeaten in 5 in League One now, so S. Schumacher and his Bolton Wanderers charges will need to be on top of their game if they're to stand any chance at Home Park on Friday.
Rotherham v Stevenage - Double Chance - away win or draw
What a dismal set of results for Rotherham United and their supporters, with their last League One win now coming 5 matches ago. Boss M. Hamshaw simply must find a way out, and sooner rather than later. Will Stevenage at AESSEAL New York Stadium on Friday come too soon, or be a turning point?
L Orient v Huddersfield - Both Teams To Score & Result -
If you like backing goals and picking a winner, then the upcoming game between Leyton Orient and Huddersfield Town could be the one for you. R. Wellens's side have lost 11 games this season in which both sides have found the net. That's a record in League One.
Lincoln v L Orient - Both Teams To Score & Result -
If you like backing goals and choosing a winner, then the upcoming clash between Leyton Orient and Lincoln City might well be the one for you. R. Wellens's side have lost 11 games this term in which both teams have got on the scoresheet. That's the highest number in League One.
Port Vale v Barnsley - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - over
Tipsters and fans alike will be praying for a deluge of goals when Port Vale and Barnsley go head-to-head on Sunday afternoon in League One. D. Moore and C. Hourihane's squads are more than talented enough to score in this fixture, and KickOff's smart tipsters are backing them to show that at Vale Park. 8 of them are tipping there to be at least 3 goals in total. 1.95 is the most-enticing price in our betslip for their suggestion, and there will be a lot of happy faces around if it does deliver.
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. Will that much-needed goal-fest finally come around on Saturday afternoon, as they face J. Jackson's AFC Wimbledon at Cherry Red Records Stadium? With odds of 1.07 on there being under 4.5 goals, the bookmakers certainly don’t think so.
Peterborough v Port Vale - Win / Draw / Win - home win
Peterborough United have enjoyed meeting Port Vale in the League One in recent years, with their streak now extending to 6 straight wins against them. D. Moore will be doing all he can to turn the tide, while L. Williams will be expecting more of the same on Saturday afternoon.
