Saturday's League One predictions including Bolton vs. Barnsley

Sports Mole provides score predictions and previews for all of today's League One fixtures, including Bolton vs. Barnsley.


Accrington vs. Derby (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Accrington Stanley host Derby County in League One on Saturday, looking to climb above the Rams and into the top half of the table.

Stanley sit in 13th after 12 games, just a point behind Saturday's visitors to the Wham Stadium, who have won just once away from home this season.

We say: Accrington Stanley 1-2 Derby County


It is only a matter of time until Derby's big-name signings start clicking together, and they should be just too much for Accrington, but it certainly will not be easy.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Bolton vs. Barnsley (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Bolton Wanderers and Barnsley face each other in League One on Saturday, heading into the game on the same number of points and with an equal goal difference.

The Tykes occupy the final playoff position while Bolton are one spot further back, but both teams come into the game on the back of defeats against promoted sides last weekend.

We say: Bolton Wanderers 1-1 Barnsley


Bolton are good at home, Barnsley are good on the road and both teams are resolute defensively. It should be an entertaining but even encounter, with neither team getting the edge over the other.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Burton Albion vs. Morecambe (Saturday, 3.00pm)

The bottom two in League One go head to head on Saturday as Morecambe make the trip to Burton Albion in a relegation six-pointer.

The two teams, who come into the game on the back of contrasting results against promotion hopefuls, are separated by a solitary point with Burton just ahead of the Shrimpers having played a game more.

We say: Burton Albion 3-1 Morecambe


Burton should have confidence after last weekend's result, which would give them the edge against a Morecambe side devoid of it.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.

Cambridge United host Sheffield Wednesday in League One on Saturday, looking to stop their spiralling form that has seen them drop into the bottom half of the table.

The U's come into the game in 14th place having lost five of their last six, 10 points behind Wednesday who sit in third place, four points outside of the automatic promotion places.

We say: Cambridge United 1-3 Sheffield Wednesday


Cambridge are in a big hole at the moment and it will be a struggle to get out of it against one of the in-form teams in the league.

Wednesday have been fulfilling their potential as of late and it should continue at The Abbey.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.

Cheltenham vs. Bristol Rovers (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Cheltenham Town will be looking to bounce back from defeat to Sheffield Wednesday, ending their three-game winning run, as they host Bristol Rovers at The Completely-Suzuki Stadium on Saturday.

Joey Barton's side are coming into this on the back of three consecutive victories, with their latest three points being gained away from home against MK Dons.

We say: Cheltenham Town 2-2 Bristol Rovers


Bristol Rovers have won their last two league games and this puts them in a good position to pick up a positive result in this fixture.

However, with Cheltenham being on good form at home and their most recent defeat being to a difficult Sheffield Wednesday side, we expect them to put on a good performance and therefore a draw seems the most likely result.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.

Exeter vs. Oxford Utd (Saturday, 3.00pm)

After suffering a surprise 4-2 defeat to Charlton Athletic, ending a three-game unbeaten run in the league, Exeter City will be looking to get back to winning ways as they host Oxford United at St James Park on Saturday.

Karl Robinson's side are currently sitting 20th in the League One table and are without a win in their last four league games, with three defeats in those games, including their previous fixture against Wycombe Wanderers.

We say: Exeter City 2-1 Oxford United


Although Exeter lost their previous fixture against Charlton, Oxford are expected to be an easier opponent, who are lacking confidence at the moment. The attacking threat of the Exeter front line should be enough to win this game.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Fleetwood vs. Shrewsbury (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Shrewsbury Town will attempt to clinch consecutive victories when they travel to Highbury Stadium to face Fleetwood Town on Saturday.

The hosts have taken four points from their last two games, and they head into the weekend in 12th place, while Shrewsbury are two points better off in ninth position.

We say: Fleetwood Town 1-1 Shrewsbury Town


Fleetwood have proven to be a tough team to beat this season, but they have drawn four of their last five home games in the league, and we think that Saturday's contest will also end all square.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Ipswich vs. Lincoln (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Promotion hopefuls Ipswich Town will attempt to claim a fourth consecutive victory when they play host to Lincoln City on Saturday.

While the home side currently occupy second position, Lincoln are only three points above the relegation zone in 18th place.

We say: Ipswich Town 3-1 Lincoln City


Ipswich have been in impressive form this season, and we think that they will clinch a fourth consecutive victory when they face a Lincoln side who have lost three of their last four away league games.

Our tipster partners are predicting a home win.

MK Dons vs. Plymouth (Saturday, 3.00pm)

MK Dons will look to avoid a third consecutive defeat when they play host to League One leaders Plymouth Argyle on Saturday.

Meanwhile, the visitors are in impressive form, and they will attempt to claim a sixth consecutive victory in all competitions.

We say: MK Dons 1-3 Plymouth Argyle


While MK Dons are struggling in the relegation zone, Plymouth are involved in a promotion race, and we think that the visitors will continue their fine run of form to claim a sixth consecutive victory in all competitions.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.

Port Vale vs. Forest Green (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Two of the sides promoted from League Two last season face off at Vale Park this Saturday, when Port Vale host Forest Green Rovers.

Forest Green were crowned champions to reach this level for the first time, while Port Vale were victorious at Wembley in the playoff final, but survival in League One is on the agenda for both sides currently.

We say: Port Vale 2-1 Forest Green Rovers


Port Vale have won three of their last five games, including that impressive win at Pride Park last weekend, and while they may not have the most potent attack, they face a Forest Green side who have been very generous in giving up goals.

Rovers have won just one of their last six in League One, conceding 14 in the process, and their only away league win of the season came back in July on the opening day so they may struggle again here on the road.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Wycombe vs. Peterborough (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Peterborough United will look to strengthen their position at the top end of the League One table on Saturday, when they make the trip to Adams Park to take on Wycombe Wanderers.

The Posh have put themselves in the playoff places with three victories from their last four outings, while their hosts sit 17th after making a return to winning ways last weekend.

We say: Wycombe Wanderers 1-3 Peterborough United


Wycombe will feel rejuvenated after returning to winning ways last time out and arguably boast a stronger squad than their current league position suggests, but they are far from their best, while the Posh arrive with plenty of confidence, and we back the visitors to continue their impressive run.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.
