All eyes will be on St James Park as Exeter City host Stockport County in a crucial clash with very different objectives at both ends of the table. Given the huge gap in quality between the two teams, we predict a 1-0 away win. The Grecians are fighting to escape the relegation zone and come in after a 2-2 draw with Plymouth, but their overall form remains poor at just 0.60 points per game over the last 10 matches. Exeter City score only 0.9 goals per game and concede 1.6, with a worrying 50% failure-to-score rate. Home form is slightly better (1.00 PPG), but still inconsistent.
Stockport arrive in strong playoff contention after a 2-0 win over AFC Wimbledon, averaging 1.70 points per game across their last 10. The Hatters score 1.7 goals per match and concede 1.2, with excellent home dominance and more balanced away performances. Their xG (1.70) also suggests consistent attacking output, and they look more organised in both boxes. Midfielder Josh Stokes adds extra momentum after scoring off the bench and pushing for a start.
As Exeter’s poor scoring record makes an upset unlikely, Away Win is our main betting tip for this League One matchup, alongside Stockport to Score First and Stockport to Win to Nil.
This League 1 match will be played on Saturday 18 April 2026 at 15:00.
