Stockport County

There will be fireworks when Leyton Orient and Stockport County lock horns in the League One playoffs semis, first leg. The O’s are on a six-game winning run in the League One and they must be high on confidence following a thrilling 4-1 win over Huddersfield Town. The likes of Theo Archibald, Dan Happe, Tom James, and Jordan Graham remain in the recovery room, but there a... Read More...

Stockport County

Stockport County

Wycombe and Stockport face each other at Adams Park in what is expected to be a close encounter. The Chairboys failed to secure automatic promotion, but they surely want to avoid Charlton in the League One playoffs. As a result, we are positive that Wycombe will adopt an attack-oriented strategy in Saturday’s encounter. Both George and Harvie are sidelined with injuries, w... Read More...

Crawley

Crawley

Buoyed by a 2-1 win over Barnsley, Shrewsbury Town will look to give fans yet another reason to celebrate when they face Crawley Town on Saturday. The Shrews did well to put an end to their dreadful winless run, but that did not help them avoid the drop. Midfielder Leo Castledine remains in the recovery room, but the 19-year-old should be the only absentee in the home team. ... Read More...

Peterborough

Peterborough

After failing to win the previous four league matches, Rotherham United will look to return to winning ways when they face Peterborough on the last day of the season. The Millers aim to put an end to their four-game winless run and they are surely capable of matching the Posh in front of home fans. All Raggett, MacDonald, and Jules should miss out with injuries for the home ... Read More...

Barnsley

Barnsley

Reading welcome Barnsley to the Select Car Leasing Stadium on the final day of the League One season, with everything still to play for. The Royals sit just outside the playoff spots and know that only a win — and results elsewhere going their way — will give them a shot at promotion. After a strong run-in under Ruben Selles, Reading have momentum on their side, though a... Read More...

Wigan

Wigan

Northampton will try to recover from a 3-0 loss to Crawley Town when they face Wigan Athletic in the last game of the season. The hosts did well to secure the League One survival, meaning that they have little to play for in Saturday’s clash. Even though there are no fresh injury worries in the home team, defender Luke Mbete should be recalled to the starting XI.

Exeter

Mansfield will look to build on a thrilling 4-2 win over Peterborough when they take on Exeter in the League One round 46. The Yellows have nothing to play for in Saturday’s clash after securing the League One survival, but their pride will be at stake this time out. A man to keep an eye on in the home team will be Will Evans, who scored a brace at the weekend.

Wrexham

Lincoln City welcome already-promoted Wrexham to Sincil Bank for a final-day clash with little at stake but pride and momentum heading into the summer. The Imps saw their playoff hopes dashed last weekend and now prepare to sign off in front of their fans, albeit without injured trio Jefferies, Cadamarteri, and Makama. Despite a strong campaign, their late-season dip proved ... Read More...

Leyton Orient

Leyton Orient will be looking to sneak into the playoffs when they face Huddersfield Town in the decider. The O’s have been producing excellent displays in League One of late and you should know that they are after their sixth consecutive league win. All Archibald, Graham, Happe, and James are injured for the visiting side. The Terriers, on the other hand, missed out on a ... Read More...

Charlton Athletic will look to recover from a 3-0 loss to Burton Albion when they take on Burton on the last day of the season. The Red Robins failed to secure automatic promotion, but they will have yet another chance to return to the Championship after booking their spot in the playoffs. Lloyd Jones limped off with injury in the last league match, with Micah Mbick likely t... Read More...

After failing to secure the League One survival, Cambridge United will try to claim a major scalp when they take on Birmingham City in the season closer. The Yellows head into Saturday’s clash following back-to-back defeats to Leyton Orient and Burton Albion and they face yet another uphill task against the league leaders.

Bolton play host to Stevenage at their Toughsheet Community Stadium in the season closer.
