Saturday's League One football predictions including Sunderland vs. Oxford

Sports Mole provides score predictions and previews for both of today's League One fixtures - Accrington vs. Fleetwood and Sunderland vs. Oxford.

Fleetwood Town are looking to move to within a point of 20th-placed Morecambe on Saturday, when they make a short trip across the North West to Accrington Stanley.

The home side are currently sitting 14th in League One and ended their five-game winless run in the division last weekend to push them closer towards midtable.

We say: Accrington Stanley 1-1 Fleetwood Town


Fleetwood are looking to turn their form around and they will be looking to take advantage of Accrington's poor form also to gain another point in League One on Saturday.

Accrington will want to prevent Fleetwood's attack from flourishing having conceded 11 goals in their last four league outings, which may mean a low-scoring game will be played out at the Wham Stadium.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Sunderland vs. Oxford Utd (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Oxford United have the opportunity to leapfrog Saturday's opponents Sunderland into the League One playoff positions, if the Yellows can collect all three points at the Stadium of Light.

Sunderland are currently on a three-game unbeaten run in the league, while Oxford have strung together six domestic outings without defeat.

We say: Sunderland 1-2 Oxford United


Oxford will be boosted by the return of some key players and their confidence will be high having put together a strong run of form in League One and dealing with big hits to their squad.

Sunderland are also not in bad form themselves but their run across the end of October and beginning of November shows that there are still weaknesses for Oxford to exploit on Saturday.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.
