Wycombe

Wycombe

Plymouth face Wycombe looking to regroup after a heavy 4-1 defeat to Reading, with key midfielder Joe Ralls suspended following his sending-off. The Chairboys, though, are not regarded as good travellers and we predict that they will suffer a 1-0 loss at Home Park. Despite the Boxing Day loss, the Pilgrims have shown resilience, particularly on the road, winning 67% of their... Read More...

Leyton Orient

Luton Town take on Leyton Orient full of confidence after their emphatic 4-0 Boxing Day win over Wycombe, a result that highlighted their excellent home consistency. Given Leyton's difficulties on the road, we predict a 2-0 home win. The Hatters average 2.00 points per game at home, score 2.17 goals per match, and concede just 0.67, supported by a solid 50% home clean-sheet ... Read More...

Northampton

Northampton

Huddersfield are high on confidence after demolishing Port Vale 5-0 on Boxing Day, a performance that reflected their strong attacking numbers this season (3.00 GPG at home). Given Northampton's poor display in a 5-1 loss to Burton, we predict an easy 3-1 home win. Huddersfield's expected goals average at home sits at 2.17, showing that recent high-scoring displays are not a... Read More...

Cardiff City are high on spirits following a hard-fought 1-0 Boxing Day win over Exeter and given their fine home record, we predict that they will defeat Stevenage with the team outcome (1-0). The triumph over Grecians extended Cardiff's solid home form, where they average 2.29 goals scored and post an impressive 2.14 points per game. Their attacking output remains consiste...

Burton enter their final game of the year full of confidence after producing one of their best performances of the season, a dominant 5-1 Boxing Day win over Northampton. With Wigan struggling to find their best form of late, our prediction leans toward a 2-1 home win. Burton's attacking numbers have improved significantly, scoring 1.60 goals per match overall, while their e... Read More...

Port Vale

Port Vale

Bradford aim to finish 2025 in style boosted by a hard-fought 2-1 Boxing Day win over Wigan. Given Port Vale's struggles on the travels, we predict that the Bantams will do so with a 1-0 win. At Valley Parade Bradford have been highly reliable, winning 75% of their matches and conceding just 0.75 goals per game. Their attacking numbers are modest overall (0.90 scored per mat...

As Blackpool are brimming with confidence after a narrow 1-0 Boxing Day win over Doncaster, we predict that they will defeat Rotherham United 2-1 on Monday evening. Ian Evatt’s side look especially convincing at Bloomfield Road, where they average 1.75 goals scored and hold a solid 1.65 expected goals. Defensively, they remain slightly vulnerable (1.50 conceded per home ga... Read More...

Lincoln

Barnsley are eager to bounce back from their 3-2 Boxing Day defeat to Mansfield, a match in which defensive lapses again proved costly. With Lincoln showing signs of improvement up front, we predict a 2-2 draw. Conor Hourihane’s side have now lost three of their last four games, conceding 2.00 goals per match overall and 1.75 at home, which highlights their main weakness. ... Read More...

Exeter

AFC Wimbledon take on Exeter just days after the sides played out a goalless Boxing Day draw, a result that at least left the hosts with no new injury concerns. As the two teams seem to be evenly matched, a 1-1 draw is on the cards at The Cherry Red Records Stadium. With a full squad available, the Dons will hope to improve on a poor home record, having failed to win any of ... Read More...

Stockport return to Edgeley Park after a confidence-boosting 2–1 win at Mansfield, but their home form remains a real concern. Therefore, we predict a 2-2 draw. With 0.60 points per game at home and no wins in five, they have struggled to turn possession and territory into results. Stockport’s attacking output at home is modest—just 0.60 goals scored per match—despit... Read More...
