best betting bonuses for League One football.
Huddersfield vs Bolton
Firstly, let’s start at Kirklees Stadium, where Huddersfield face Bolton. Promotion-chasing duo Huddersfield and Bolton have struggled to find consistency this season, with them both sitting just outside the play-offs. The Terriers can return to the top six by defeating Bolton. Schumacher’s side had a disappointing 3-0 loss to Burton last Saturday, so they’ll be looking to bounce back.

Burton vs Peterborough
Both sides have had poor starts, with Burton 20th and Peterborough 24th. However, the Brewers have shown clear improvement with a 1-0 away win against Cardiff and a 3-0 home win against Bolton in their last three league games. On the other hand, Darren Ferguson’s Peterborough have lost their last two. Both sides have been finding the back of the net regularly. Burton have scored five goals in their last five matches, with Peterborough scoring eight in their last five games.
Betting tip: Both Teams To Score – 4/6 –

Lincoln City vs Stevenage
Under the management of Michael Skubala, Lincoln City have become playoff place contenders. The Imps come into this fixture on the back of a surprising 1-0 home loss to Exeter, with Kevin McDonald scoring in the 94th minute. Stevenage have had a fantastic start to the season, currently sitting top of the league with 8 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss. Both teams are in great form, so it should be a tight contest. The Imps have been great at home, so far with only one loss at Sincil Bank.
Betting tip: Double Chance – Lincoln/Draw – 2/5 –

Blackpool vs Wycombe
Blackpool return to Bloomfield Road aiming to turn around a worrying run of form. Winless in their last four, the Seasiders have found it difficult to turn possession into goals. Due to Steve Bruce’s sacking, Blackpool are still on the search for a new manager, so it will likely be interim managers Stephen Dobbie and Steve Banks in charge on Saturday. Wycombe Wanderers, meanwhile, arrive in better form under Michael Duff, who was appointed recently, following the dismissal of Mike Dodds. The Chairboys have only lost one of their last four League One fixtures.
Betting Tip – Draw – 9/4 –
Quick Bet
Bradford vs Barnsley
Bradford have won all five League One matches at home this season, so they’ll be looking to continue this form against Barnsley on Saturday. Conor Hourihane’s side has only managed one point on the road, from their last two away games, which included a loss to Blackpool and a 2-2 draw at Adams Park against Wycombe.
Betting Tip: Bradford Win & both teams to score – 2.5/1 – Betway
Cardiff vs Reading
Cardiff had an excellent start to the season under manager Brian Barry-Murphy, but recent performances have dropped off slightly, including a 1-0 home loss to Burton, and the Bluebirds also lost to rivals Newport 1-0 in the Vertu Trophy last Tuesday. Cardiff now face a struggling Reading side under pressure. Noel Hunt’s side have won just two out of 11 games this season, which puts them 21st in the table. Cardiff’s home advantage should see them come out on top.
Betting Tip: Cardiff 1st half winner – 11/10 – PricedUp
Doncaster vs Northampton
Doncaster Rovers come into this match in poor form, having picked up just one point from their last five league games. A surprising 4-0 loss to Leyton Orient on Saturday shows a real downturn after their strong start to the season. Kevin Nolan’s Northampton are currently 14th and were unlucky last Saturday, conceding two late goals. Both teams have struggled for goals in recent fixtures, so I predict this will be low-scoring.
Betting Tip: Both Teams Not To Score – 3/4 –

Luton vs Mansfield
Despite Luton coming into this fixture on the back of two losses, the Hatters have a good chance against Mansfield on Saturday, with it being Jack Wilshere’s first game in charge. Mansfield are currently sat just one position behind Luton in the table in 12th. The Stags have struggled defensively in recent fixtures; they haven’t kept a clean sheet in 10 games.
Betting Tip: Luton Win – 8/13 – Betway
Plymouth vs Wimbledon
After earning promotion through last season’s League Two playoffs, the Dons have excellent current form this season in League One, winning four of their last five games. Plymouth haven’t lost to Wimbledon in their last five meetings, and the Pilgrims have scored 14 goals in their last five matches.
Betting Tip: Over 2.5 Goals – Evs – Spreadex
Rotherham vs Leyton Orient
This fixture should be an entertaining encounter, with both teams coming into this on the back of two wins. The Millers scored two late goals to secure all three points away at Northampton. However, Matt Hamshaw’s side are currently 22nd in the table with relegation looking like a possibility. Orient manager Richie Wellens was strongly linked with Blackpool, but Wellens should stay at Orient after their impressive 4-0 home win against Doncaster on Saturday. Dominic Ballard scored a hat-trick on Saturday, and he scored two weeks ago against Cardiff.
Betting Tip: Dominic Ballard To Score – 7/3 – Quick Bet
Stockport vs Exeter
Stockport just got past Blackpool last Saturday with a 1-0 win at Edgeley Park. Dave Challinor’s Stockport have had 1.60 xG per game at home, scoring a goal in every league game so far this season. After play-off disappointment last season, County will be looking to bounce back this season and secure promotion. They face a struggling Exeter side, who have lost three out of their last five games. Gary Caldwell’s Exeter is currently performing below expectations, so Stockport should secure all three points here.
Betting Tip: Stockport Win – 9/20 – Betway
Wigan vs Port Vale
This is expected to be a close fixture with Wigan currently 17th in the table and Port Vale 15th. The Latics are facing increasing pressure after a promising start to League One, slowing down. Ryan Lowe’s 4-1 loss to local rivals Bolton marked the beginning of a six-match winless streak in all competitions. Darren Moore’s Port Vale started the season with low-margin games but have been better in recent fixtures, with 11 points in their last five games.
Betting Tip: Draw – 9/4 – BetMGM
