League One stats and tips
Port Vale v AFC Wim - Over / Under 4.5 Goals - under
AFC Wimbledon's recent matches in League One have delivered decent entertainment, and a fair amount of goals, but it has been a while since J. Jackson's side provided their supporters with one of those games that has you waxing lyrical in the pub afterwards. There have been under 4.5 goals in every one of their last 9 outings.
Barnsley v Northampton - Both Teams To Score & Result - home
Northampton Town will be aware that 1 goal may not be enough to come out on top against Barnsley on Tuesday evening. C. Hourihane's team have the best record in League One when it comes to conceding yet still claiming victory (8 of their 25 outings), so focusing on defence might be the best route to victory for K. Nolan and his Northampton Town team at Oakwell.
Burton v Doncaster - Over / Under 5.5 Goals - over
Doncaster Rovers have been League One's entertainers this season, at least in when it comes to delivering high scoring fixtures. No other side comes close to their record of having been involved in 4 games with at least 6 goals scored this campaign. Can they bring their tally to 5 when they face Burton Albion on Tuesday evening? With odds of 15.00 on offer, it could be worth backing.
Luton v Bradford - Both Teams To Score & Result - away
Luton Town will be concerned that 1 goal may not be enough to get the win against Bradford City on Saturday lunch time. G. Alexander's side have the best record in League One when it comes to conceding yet still claiming victory (8 of their 28 games), so defence first might be the best course of action for J. Wilshere and his Luton Town team at Kenilworth Road.
AFC Wim v Reading - Both Teams To Score & Result - draw
The Cherry Red Records Stadium plays host as Reading and AFC Wimbledon go head-to-head on Saturday afternoon, in what could prove to be a proper ding-dong battle. L. Richardson's side have the most score draws of any side in the division - 10 in 28 matches. An extension of that record is available at 4.50.
Bolton v Barnsley - Both Teams To Score - yes
When Bolton Wanderers and Barnsley have met in the League One, goals have been the order of the day. Both teams have scored in each of their last 7 meetings, so the Macron Stadium crowd could be in for another nail-biter on Saturday afternoon.
Huddersfield v Blackpool - Double Chance - away win or draw
Huddersfield Town have consistently struggled against Blackpool in the league in recent years. The two clubs have played on 5 occasions since 2022, and Blackpool have remained unbeaten in them all. Saturday's game at John Smith's Stadium could be another hard one for G. Lee & co.
Mansfield v Exeter - Both Teams To Score - no
If we trust the form book, we can predict at least one club to earn a clean sheet at One Call Stadium on Saturday, as G. Caldwell and N. Clough's teams meet. Exeter City have had the highest number of games where one team or more has failed to score (i.e. BTTS no) in League One so far this term - 18 out of 28 played. Both gaffers will just be praying it isn't their side that draws a blank.
Northampton v Stevenage - Double Chance - away win or draw
Northampton Town have consistently struggled against Stevenage in the league in recent years. The two clubs have played on 6 occasions since 2023, and Stevenage have remained unbeaten in them all. Saturday's game at Sixfields Stadium could be another hard one for K. Nolan & co.
Peterborough v Wigan - Double Chance - home win or draw
It has been a miserable succession of results for Wigan Athletic and their faithful followers, with their last League One win now coming 6 games ago. Boss R. Lowe needs to find a way out, and sooner rather than later. Will Peterborough United at ABAX Stadium on Saturday be the one in which they turn it around?
Plymouth v Lincoln - Double Chance - away win or draw
Plymouth Argyle simply have not been able to find a way past Lincoln City in the League One in recent years. The two teams have played on 5 occasions since 2021, and Lincoln City have gone unbeaten in them all. Saturday's game at Home Park could be a tricky one for T. Cleverley & co.
Stockport v L Orient - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - over
If you're looking for some proper entertainment on Saturday afternoon, then the clash between Leyton Orient and Stockport County could be worth checking out. R. Wellens's team lead League One in most matches with more than 2 goals scored so far this season. 18 of their League One games have already gone that way. With a record like that, surely only an entirely negative game plan from D. Challinor's men could prevent more of the same.
Wycombe v Doncaster - Over / Under 5.5 Goals - over
Doncaster Rovers have been League One's showmen this campaign, at least in terms of producing goal-filled matches. No other team comes close to their record of having taken part in 4 games with at least 6 goals scored this term. Can they make it 5 when they take on Wycombe Wanderers on Saturday afternoon? With odds of 17.00 on offer, it might be one to watch.
Mansfield v Peterborough - Half Time / Full Time - home+home
Peterborough United will be hoping not to add to the 10 games they have already lost at both the break and the final whistle this term when they square off against Mansfield Town on Tuesday. L. Williams's team already lead 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 encounters aren't always entirely dull, but fans of Wigan Athletic have had plenty of opportunity to test that theory this term. 20 of their side's fixtures 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 encounter on Tuesday? Or will it be yet another low scoring affair?
Stevenage v Huddersfield - Both Teams To Score & Result -
If you like putting your money on goals and picking a winner, then the upcoming match between Huddersfield Town and Stevenage might well warrant a closer look. G. Lee's side have lost 8 games this season in which both sides have got on the scoresheet. That's a record in League One.
Bradford v Rotherham - Win / Draw / Win - home win
The home win is far and away the most popular bet among KickOff's tipsters as Bradford City and Rotherham United clash in League One on Saturday. A total of 76 have backed it already, with top odds of 1.65 catching their eye.
Doncaster v Luton - Double Chance - away win or draw
It has been a dismal succession of results for Doncaster Rovers and their supporters, with their last League One victory now coming 6 matches ago. Boss G. McCann needs to find a remedy, and quickly. Will Luton Town at The Keepmoat Stadium on Sunday provide some relief?
Exeter v Burton - Double Chance - away win or draw
Claiming at least a draw away from home is no mean feat but, according to KO's tipsters that's exactly what G. Bowyer's players will do when they take on Exeter City on Saturday at St James Park. 15 are backing them in the double chance market from G. Caldwell's side
Rotherham v Mansfield - Win / Draw / Win - away win
It's never easy to end a losing run, but that's the task facing Rotherham United boss M. Hamshaw on Sunday. His team faces Mansfield Town having been beaten in each of their last 6 League One matches.
Exeter v Lincoln - Win / Draw / Win - home win
A simple tally suggests our tipsters have a great deal of belief in G. Caldwell and his ability to deliver a win for Exeter City on Saturday afternoon. 6 have bet on him to inspire his lads to emerge victorious from their encounter with Lincoln City. Hopefully the home boss doesn't let them down.
Mansfield v Reading - Double Chance - away win or draw
A satisfyingly long time has passed since Reading’s merry fans watched their side lose in League One. L. Richardson’s men are now unbeaten in 5 matches, and he'll be hopeful that they can keep that streak running against Mansfield Town at One Call Stadium on Saturday afternoon. Best odds of 1.48 can be grabbed to back Reading to avoid defeat yet again.
Port Vale v Bradford - Double Chance - away win or draw
Claiming at least a draw on the road is no mean feat but, according to our tipsters that's exactly what G. Alexander's men will do when they square off against Port Vale on Tuesday at Vale Park. 10 are backing them to draw or win from D. Moore's men
Stevenage v L Orient - Win / Draw / Win - home win
A home win seems to be the most popular pick among the wise and well-informed members of KickOff as Stevenage and Leyton Orient clash in League One on Sunday. In total 9 have saved that bet on the site, with largest odds of 2.15 proving to be enticing enough for many.
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.
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.
