League One stats and tips
Stevenage v Bolton - Double Chance - away win or draw
It has been a miserable run of results for Stevenage and their faithful followers, with their last League One success now coming 6 games ago. Boss A. Revell has to find a remedy, and quickly. Will Bolton Wanderers at Lamex Stadium on Tuesday be the one in which they turn it around?
Lincoln v Burton - Half Time / Full Time - home+home
G. Bowyer won't be looking forward to facing Lincoln City in League One on Thursday. M. Skubala's side have been winning at HT and gone on to secure the win at final whistle more frequently than any other side in the League One this season - 13 times in total. That stat suggests it could well be a long night for Burton Albion, and that backing Lincoln City in the halftime fulltime market would be a strong bet at odds of 2.40.
Huddersfield v Bradford - Both Teams To Score - yes
Supporters at John Smith's Stadium may be banking on action at both ends on Saturday, and rightly so if Huddersfield Town's recent record is to be continued. We've seen BTTS in 17 of their 27 League One matches this season, more than any side in the competition.
Plymouth v Luton - Half Time / Full Time - away+away
Plymouth Argyle will be hoping not to add to the 9 matches they have already lost at both halftime and fulltime this term when they take on Luton Town on Saturday. T. Cleverley's team already lead the rest of League One in that area, and won't want to make the situation any worse. Opposing boss J. Wilshere , on the other hand, will be feeling very differently.
Blackpool v Northampton - Over / Under 0.5 Goals - under
Fans heading to Bloomfield Road this Saturday to watch Northampton Town and Blackpool might already be worrying about a long afternoon, and with good reason. K. Nolan's players have been involved in 4 nil-nils this term, the highest number of any team in League One. Will anyone break the deadlock? You can bet against it at best odds of 8.50.
Bolton v L Orient - Half Time / Full Time - draw+draw
It might not be an honour they're especially proud of, but Bolton Wanderers currently lead all opponents in League One when it comes to matches in which they have been level at both the break and the final whistle this season, with their tally now at 6 in 26 matches. They will put that somewhat unwelcome consistency on the line against Leyton Orient at Macron Stadium on Saturday, in a fixture that could see yet another tie.
Doncaster v Wigan - Win / Draw / Win - away win
Wigan Athletic have enjoyed meeting Doncaster Rovers in the League One of late, with a run of 7 straight wins against them. G. McCann will be doing all he can to turn the tide, while R. Lowe will be hoping for more of the same on Saturday afternoon.
Port Vale v Exeter - Both Teams To Score - no
Going on form alone, we can expect at least one club to earn a clean sheet at Vale Park on Saturday, as G. Caldwell and D. Moore's teams meet. Exeter City have had the highest number of fixtures where one team or more has failed to score (i.e. BTTS no) in League One so far this season - 17 out of 25 played. Both gaffers will just be hoping it isn't their side that fails to register.
Reading v Barnsley - Both Teams To Score - yes
When Reading and Barnsley have met in the league, they've delivered proper entertainment. Both teams have found the net in each of their last 6 matches against one another, so the Madejski Stadium faithful will be expecting another nail-biter on Saturday afternoon.
Stevenage v Mansfield - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under
Stevenage and Mansfield Town have played out a number of cagey affairs in recent years. With each of their last 6 league matches having under 2.5 goals, the attackers picked by A. Revell and N. Clough may be in for a tough afternoon.
Wycombe v Peterborough - Both Teams To Score - yes
When Wycombe Wanderers and Peterborough United have met in the League One, goals have generally followed. Both teams have found the net in each of their last 5 clashes, so the Adams Park crowd will be expecting another nail-biter on Saturday afternoon.
Huddersfield v Luton - Both Teams To Score & Result -
If you like tipping goals and choosing a victor, then the upcoming game between Huddersfield Town and Luton Town might well be the one for you. G. Lee's side have lost 8 games this campaign in which both sides have scored. That's the highest number in League One.
Doncaster v L Orient - Both Teams To Score & Result -
If you like putting your money on goals and picking a winner, then the upcoming fixture between Doncaster Rovers and Leyton Orient could warrant a closer look. G. McCann's side have lost 7 games this season in which both teams have got on the scoresheet. That's the highest number in League One.
Bradford v Doncaster - Both Teams To Score & Result -
If you like putting your money on goals and picking a victor, then the upcoming game between Doncaster Rovers and Bradford City might well be worth a look. G. McCann's side have lost 7 games this campaign in which both teams have scored. That's the highest number in League One.
Peterborough v Huddersfield - Both Teams To Score & Result -
If you like backing goals and choosing a victor, then the upcoming match between Huddersfield Town and Peterborough United could warrant a closer look. G. Lee's side have lost 8 games this term in which both clubs have found the net. That's the most in League One.
Barnsley v Northampton - Both Teams To Score - no
Going on form alone, we can back at least one goalkeeper to keep a clean sheet at Oakwell on Saturday, as K. Nolan and C. Hourihane's teams meet. Northampton Town have had the most matches where one team or more has failed to find the back of the net (i.e. BTTS no) in League One so far this term - 11 out of 15 played. Both managers will just be hoping it isn't their side that flounders in front of goal.
Mansfield v Peterborough - Over / Under 3.5 Goals - under
Supporters have seen 3 goals or less in all of Mansfield Town's last 10 League One outings. As they go head to head with L. Williams's Peterborough United at One Call Stadium on Saturday, the smart money will be backing more of the same.
Wigan v Reading - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under
Wigan Athletic have taken part in some low-scoring matches in League One recently. There have been under 2.5 goals in each of R. Lowe's side's last 6 outings and, with L. Richardson and his Reading ahead on Saturday afternoon, their strikers really should be putting in some extra work on the training ground.
