League One Predictions by FootballPredictions.com

Introduced for the 2004/2005 season, the League One is regarded as one of the best third-tier leagues in the world. Previously known as the Football League Second Division, the League

One commonly begins in early August, while finishing in late May after the promotion play-offs. Given the money that is pumped up into the League One squads during the transfer windows, it is no surprise that a Financial Fair Play arrangement has been in place in the English third tier since the 2012/2013 season.

All roads lead to Wembley

24 teams compete in the League One; top two sides secure automatic promotion to the Championship and can start their dream working towards the Premier League, whereas four teams below book their place in the play-offs.

Two legs are played in the semi-finals, with new Wembley Stadium hosting the final. Speaking of relegation to the League Two, four teams that finish the season at the bottom of the standings drop to the English fourth tier.

League One Tips, Predictions and Betting advice

The League One might not be the most entertaining league to watch, but betting on the English third tier could prove to be a boost to your sportsbook account.

This League One is considered one of the most unpredictable leagues in the world, therefore, our advice is to back underdogs when putting your money on the third tier of the English football league pyramid. Backing teams who are a real force to be reckoned with at home is likely to prove fruitful as well.

Speaking of the battle for promotion, teams with prior Championship experience, who manage to keep hold of key players in the summer transfer window, are often seen as the main favourites to secure a top-two finish.
