Northampton

Northampton

Burton Albion play host to Northampton Town aiming to build on their recent unbeaten spell, but given the attacking potential of the two teams, a high-scoring 2-2 draw is on the cards. Burton's home form has been steady, averaging 1.40 points per game, supported by a solid defensive structure that has produced a strong 60% clean-sheet rate at the Pirelli. However, the Brewer...

VIEW PREDICTION

Wigan

Wigan

Bradford aim to bounce back from their 2-1 defeat to Leyton as they return home, where their performances have been far more convincing. As both Bradford and Wigan struggle up front, our prediction leans toward a 1-1 draw. The Bantams average 1.75 points per game at Valley Parade and boast an impressive 75% home clean-sheet rate, conceding just 0.50 goals per home match. Des... Read More...

Rotherham

Rotherham

Bolton look to strengthen their promotion push when they welcome struggling Rotherham and we predict that they will do so with a routine 3-0 win. The Trotters head into this round with an excellent 2.60 points per game at home and an 80% win rate at the Toughsheet Community Stadium. Bolton have been clinical in front of goal, averaging 2.20 home goals and generating 1.93 exp... Read More...

Doncaster

Doncaster

Blackpool continue their push for consistency as they host Doncaster in Friday's relegation six-pointer. Given Doncaster's poor form in December, our prediction leans toward a 2-1 home win. The Seasiders are entering this clash unbeaten in four and averaging 1.75 points per game at home. The Seasiders have been particularly strong going forward at Bloomfield Road, scoring 2....

Mansfield

Mansfield

Barnsley aim to extend their strong home form as they welcome Mansfield to Oakwell in what promises to be an entertaining contest. With Barnsley turning their stadium into a real fortress, we predict a 3-1 home win. The Tykes have picked up 2.25 points per game at home, winning three of their last four, while scoring an impressive 2.75 goals per match on their own turf. Thei... Read More...

VIEW PREDICTION

Stevenage

Stevenage

AFC Wimbledon host Stevenage at Plough Lane as both sides look to gain momentum in League One. As the two teams seem to be evenly matched, our prediction leans toward a 1-1 draw. Wimbledon’s recent form has been patchy, with just 0.80 points per game and only one win in their last five matches. At home, they have struggled significantly, scoring only 0.25 goals per match w...

VIEW PREDICTION

Bolton

Bolton

Wycombe host Bolton in a League One clash with contrasting form and fitness situations. Therefore, we predict that the in-form visitors will emerge triumphant in Saturday's encounter (0-1). The Chairboys have struggled recently, earning 1.5 points per game, winning 40% of their matches, and averaging 1.3 goals scored while conceding 1.1 per game. Home form is better, with 2....

VIEW PREDICTION

Huddersfield

Huddersfield

Rotherham United face Huddersfield Town in a Championship clash where injuries could play a key role. Given the number of absentees in the home team, our prediction firmly points toward a 2-1 away win. The Millers are struggling, missing Etete, Hatton, Kayode, Benson, James, and Nombe, which contributed to back-to-back defeats against Blackpool and Plymouth. Rotherham have w... Read More...

Peterborough

Peterborough

Port Vale host Peterborough in what shapes up to be an intriguing League One clash, but given the Posh's fine form, we predict a 2-1 away win. The Pilgrims played out a 2-2 with Luton Town at the weekend, despite missing Clark and Gordon, who were not key starters. Port Vale have been inconsistent this season, winning just 30% of their matches, but scoring 1.6 goals per game... Read More...

Mansfield host Stockport County in what could be an intriguing League Two clash, with out prediction pointing toward a 2-2 draw. The Yellows are coming off a goalless draw with AFC Wimbledon, with Luke Bolton sidelined due to a long-term knee injury, though this is not expected to disrupt the side.

Lincoln host Cardiff City in an intriguing League One clash. With Leyton winning three of their last five home games, we predict a 3-1 home win. The Imps have no fresh injury concerns and head into Saturday's clash following a 2-2 draw with Blackpool.

Bradford

Leyton Orient host Bradford City in a League One clash that points toward a 2-1 home win. Leyton will miss forward Dominic Ballard, who scored in their recent 3-2 loss at Barnsley, but the hosts still have a solid home record. The O's average 1.6 points per game at home and score around 2 goals per home match while conceding less than 1 goal on average. Their expected goals ... Read More...
