EFL League One predictions

League One stats and tips

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 fixtures 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 capable of adding some spice into this encounter on Thursday? Or will it be same old same old?

Doncaster v Mansfield - Both Teams To Score - yes

When Doncaster Rovers and Mansfield Town have met in the league, goals have generally followed. Both sides have found the net in each of their last 5 meetings, so the The Keepmoat Stadium crowd could be in for another thriller on Friday lunch time.

Blackpool v Exeter - Half Time / Full Time - home+home

Exeter City will be looking to avoid adding to the 14 matches they have already lost at both HT and FT this campaign when they play Blackpool on Friday. M. Taylor's side already lead the rest of League One in that category, and won't want to make it 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 the task facing Northampton Town boss K. Nolan on Friday. His players face Bradford City having lost each of their last 4 League One games.

Burton v Barnsley - Double Chance - away win or draw

Burton Albion simply have not been able to find a way past Barnsley in the League One in recent years. The two teams have played on 5 occasions since 2023, and Barnsley have been unbeaten in them all. Friday's game at Pirelli Stadium could be another hard one for G. Bowyer & co.

Huddersfield v Reading - Both Teams To Score - yes

Fans at John Smith's Stadium will be banking on goals galore on Friday, and with good reason if Reading's recent record is to be continued. Both teams have found the net in 27 of their 40 League One matches this season, more than any side in the competition.

Lincoln v AFC Wim - Win / Draw / Win - home win

Like most fans around the globe, Lincoln City's adoring fans expect high standards from their side and, according to our users, they may not be disappointed on Friday afternoon. 5 of our users are tipping that M.

Luton Town followers have come to expect entertainment at each end when their team plays in League One, with both teams having scored at least one goal in each of their last 7 matches. Peterborough United on Friday afternoon could be another thriller.

Plymouth v Bolton - Double Chance - home win or draw

A satisfyingly long time has passed since Plymouth Argyle’s joyous supporters watched their lads lose in League One. T. Cleverley’s boys are now unbeaten in 5 outings, and he will be full of belief that they can keep going against Bolton Wanderers at Home Park on Friday afternoon. Best odds of 1.48 can be grabbed to back Plymouth Argyle to either win or draw.

Rotherham v Stevenage - Double Chance - away win or draw

Following your favourite footy team year after year can be draining, and Rotherham United’s dogged old follows know that better than most at the moment. Their team, led by M. Hamshaw, has not won any of their last 5 League One matches, and the clouds hardly look like parting against Stevenage at AESSEAL New York Stadium on Friday afternoon. Backing opposition gaffer A. Revell to add to their misery by leading his side to a positive result is available at top odds of 1.36.

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.
