Peterborough

Peterborough

Sheffield Wednesday will look to make a miracle at Hillsborough when they take on Peterborough in the League One playoffs semis, return leg. The Owls were hammered by the Posh (0-4) at Weston Homes Stadium and, as a result, they face an uphill task in the reverse fixture. Lee Gregory is pushing for a start after overcoming his injury as well as Reece James. Darren Moore is l... Read More...

Barnsley

A spot in the League One playoffs final will be at stake when Bolton and Charlton face each other in a highly-anticipated double-header. Bolton booked their place in the playoffs by beating Bristol Rovers 3-2 on the road, but they will have a much bigger fish to fry against Barnsley. All Ricardo Santos, Jack Iredale, and Jon Bodvarsson should miss out with injuries for the h... Read More...

Derby

Legendary Hillsborough stadium will host Sunday’s football game between Sheffield Wednesday and Derby County. The Owls missed out on automatic Championship promotion, meaning that they head into the last game of the season with the lack of motivation.

Wycombe

Wycombe

Portsmouth and Wycombe, the two teams who missed out on a spot in the League One playoffs, face each other at Fratton Park in what is expected to be an interesting game. The Pompey are undefeated in the previous ten league matches, but that did not help them secure a top-six finish. Anyhow, the hosts surely want to give fans some cheer on the last day of the regular season. ... Read More...

Accrington

Oxford United will be aiming to extend their winning run to three games when they take on Accrington on Matchday 46. The Yellow managed to secure the League One survival thanks to a 3-0 win over Forest Green, meaning that they have little to play for in the last match of the season.

Following a 3-2 loss to Morecambe, Lincoln will try to finish the season in top ten when they take on Shrewsbury on Saturday afternoon.

High-flying Morecambe will look to avoid relegation when they take on Exeter in the last game of the regular season. The Shrimps are on a three-game winning run in League One and it is no wonder the bookies see them as favourites to beat Exeter on the road.
