Plymouth

Rotherham United face another challenging test as they look to respond after a narrow 1–0 defeat to Bradford City. Given their poor form in League One, we predict a 3-2 win over Plymouth. Injuries continue to pile up for the Millers, with Douglas, Gore, Kaleta, Kayode and Powell all sidelined, leaving their squad stretched. Rotherham’s recent form reflects those issues: ...

Luton

Port Vale picked up a confidence-boosting 1–0 win over Northampton Town, but the victory came at a cost as defender Ben Heneghan limped off injured. Therefore, we predict that they will play out a 1-1 draw with Luton on Matchday 35. Jordan Lawrence-Gabriel is expected to replace Heneghan in the starting XI, yet Vale’s home form remains a major concern: they average just ... Read More...

AFC Wimbledon

Mansfield Town look to bounce back from a disappointing 2–0 defeat to Lincoln, but they will have to do so without key defender Baily Cargill, whose injury weakens their back line.
