Saturday's League One predictions including Sheffield Wednesday vs. Plymouth

sportsmole.co.uk, 4 February 2023, 06:10
Accrington vs. Lincoln (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Accrington Stanley are aiming to make it back-to-back league wins at the Wham Stadium when they host Lincoln City on Saturday.

The visitors, meanwhile, have failed to score in their last two league outings and are winless in their last eight matches across all competitions.

We say: Accrington Stanley 1-1 Lincoln City

Accrington Stanley's home record does not make for great reading, but Lincoln's poor run of results makes us think that John Coleman's side can claim at least a point here.

Lincoln have drawn 13 games this season, which is the highest in the division, while Accrington have only won three games out of a possible 12 at home.

Bolton vs. Cheltenham (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Bolton Wanderers will aim to make it three consecutive home wins in League One when they welcome Cheltenham Town to the University of Bolton Stadium on Saturday.

The hosts are in impressive form, losing just one of their last 10 games, while the visitors are winless in their last five league outings.

We say: Bolton Wanderers 2-0 Cheltenham Town

Bolton have won their last three matches at home in all competitions, so we think they will claim all three points on Saturday against a Cheltenham side who are winless in their last five.

Bristol Rovers vs. MK Dons (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Bristol Rovers face MK Dons at the Memorial Stadium on Saturday afternoon, in what is the latest round of League One fixtures.

The Gas are currently 12th in the table, having acquired 37 points from 28 games, while the Dons are in 20th place, outside the relegation zone by goal difference alone.

We say: Bristol Rovers 3-2 MK Dons

While both sides have not been in the best of form, losing their last two matches in League One, Bristol Rovers should have enough about them to get their season back on track with three points.

Given the Gas' poor defensive record, it is unlikely that they keep a clean sheet, but Collins's quality in front of goal gives them the edge in what is likely to be a free-scoring game.

Cambridge vs. Ipswich (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Cambridge United take on Ipswich Town at the Abbey Stadium on Saturday afternoon, in a battle between two teams at opposite ends of the League One table.

The hosts are in 23rd place, having acquired just 25 points from their 27 games up to this point, while the visitors are up in third, just four points shy of the automatic promotion places.

We say: Cambridge United 0-1 Ipswich Town

Ipswich's away form coupled with Cambridge looking very poor in recent weeks means that there is only one way this game should go, with the visitors emerging as winners.

Given that the hosts have a decent record at home against some of the top teams in the league, it will not be an easy task for the Tractor Boys, so we anticipate them winning by a one-goal margin.

Derby vs. Morecambe (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Two sides fighting at opposite ends of the League One table will both be vying to extend impressive runs of form on Saturday, as Derby County welcome Morecambe to Pride Park.

The hosts sit fourth thanks to a run of five straight victories in England's third tier, while their visitors have won four of their last five league matches to climb out of the relegation zone.

We say: Derby County 2-1 Morecambe

Given their recent results, Morecambe will certainly travel with plenty of confidence, and they do have the quality to pull off a result, but we anticipate Warne's men being slightly too strong, and with plenty of momentum of their own, the Rams should take all three points on home turf.

Exeter vs. Charlton (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Exeter City will be hoping to reduce the gap to the League One playoff places when they host Charlton Athletic at St James' Park on Saturday.

The visitors, meanwhile, are down in 15th place and will be looking to get back to winning ways after their three-game winning run came to an end last week.

We say: Exeter City 1-1 Charlton Athletic

Only four points separates these two sides coming into this clash, so we can see this being a closely-fought contest.

Charlton got the better of Exeter in the reverse fixture back in October, but the Addicks' away form leaves a lot to be desired, so we think the spoils will be shared.

Fleetwood vs. Burton Albion (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Burton Albion travel to Highbury Stadium to take on Fleetwood Town this Saturday, knowing that three points could be enough to escape the relegation zone.

The Brewers are 22nd in the table, inside the bottom four on goal difference, while the Cods are faring slightly better up in 17th, but they are only four points clear of the relegation places.

We say: Fleetwood Town 1-1 Burton Albion

Games involving Fleetwood Town always seem to be tight affairs, and that is why we expect them to play out a draw against Burton Albion on Saturday.

The Brewers were very impressive in their victory against Oxford United last time out, but the sides are very evenly-matched, and it is unlikely either team runs away with it.

Forest Green vs. Peterborough (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Forest Green Rovers face Peterborough United at The New Lawn Stadium on Saturday afternoon.

The Green are languishing at the foot of the League One standings, four points from safety, while Darren Ferguson's side sit in seventh position in the table, hot on the heels of the intensely-competitive playoff positions.

We say: Forest Green Rovers 1-3 Peterborough United

Having already lost a League One-high 18 matches throughout the campaign, we predict that Peterborough United will inflict another defeat on relegation-threatened Forest Green on Saturday evening.

Oxford Utd vs. Shrewsbury (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Oxford United are seeking to end a three-game losing streak when they host Shrewsbury Town at the Kassam Stadium on Saturday afternoon.

The visitors, meanwhile, come into this clash in fine form, having won their last four league outings.

We say: Oxford United 1-2 Shrewsbury Town

Despite Shrewsbury not being able to get the better of Oxford in the last eight meetings between the sides, they are in much better form than their opponents on Saturday, so we think they will claim all three points.

The sides shared the spoils in the reverse fixture back in November, but we think the Shrews can extend their winning streak here.

Port Vale vs. Wycombe (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Port Vale will look to end a three-game winless run when they welcome Wycombe Wanderers for a League One meeting on Saturday.

The visitors, meanwhile, are looking to claim consecutive victories after beating Oxford United 1-0 last time out.

We say: Port Vale 1-2 Wycombe Wanderers

Wycombe ended a three-game winless away run with a 3-0 victory over Peterborough in their most recent match on their travels, and we think that they will claim another victory on Saturday when they face a Port Vale side who have lost their last two home matches.

Portsmouth vs. Barnsley (Saturday, 3.00pm)

After losing for the first time as Portsmouth boss last weekend, John Mousinho will hope his Pompey side can return to winning ways when they face Barnsley on Saturday.

While the hosts currently sit in 11th place in the League One table, Barnsley occupy sixth position after winning their last two games.

We say: Portsmouth 1-1 Barnsley

Portsmouth have only lost two of their 13 home league games this season, and with seven of those matches ending all square, we think the hosts could play out another draw when they face Barnsley on Saturday.

Sheff Weds vs. Plymouth (Saturday, 3.00pm)

A crucial battle at the top end of the League One table will take place at Hillsborough on Saturday, as second-placed Sheffield Wednesday entertain leaders Plymouth Argyle.

The visitors currently lead their hosts by three points, having played a game more than the Owls, while the South Yorkshire outfit boast a five-point lead over third-placed Ipswich Town thanks to an eye-catching winning run.

We say: Sheffield Wednesday 1-1 Plymouth Argyle

Both sides boast plenty of quality and find themselves in impressive runs of form, and they will also be keen to avoid a defeat which could be particularly harmful to their automatic promotion bid, leading us to see a share of the spoils as the most likely outcome in South Yorkshire.
