EFL League One betting tipster Louie Truman has given his betting predictions for League One fixtures this week, along with League One betting odds and some of the best betting bonuses for League One football.
Peterborough managed 51 points last season, finishing in 18th. The current campaign has been more difficult, with the Posh currently in 23rd on joint points, as bottom of the league, Plymouth. However, there have been signs of improvement in recent games. Luke Williams’ side knocked Cardiff out of the FA cup and secured a couple of league wins, including an impressive 5–0 win against Wimbledon in their last league outing. Last season, Stockport got knocked out of the play-offs semi-final against Leyton Orient. The Hatters are currently top of League One, and they’ll be looking to build on last season and gain promotion.
Betting Tip: Peterborough Win/Draw – 13/20 – BetMGM
Exeter’s home form has been a mix of the impressive and the frustrating. They delivered a strong 2–0 win over Plymouth and earned draws with Wigan and Reading, but they’ve also endured damaging, goalless defeats to Huddersfield and Port Vale. Burton’s away form has been consistent in recent games. They’ve collected points in each of their last five away games, including wins at Bradford and Wimbledon and a draw at Doncaster. Gary Bowyer’s side bases their performances on defensive organisation and discipline. Exeter have scored nine from their last five and Burton have scored 12 in their last five.
Betting Tip: Both Teams To Score – 8/11 – Spreadex
Both sides are currently fighting a relegation battle. Port Vale are 22nd and Plymouth are currently bottom of the league. Vale’s recent form underscores a team struggling to dominate games, with three defeats and two draws in their last five matches. Darren Moore’s side has struggled defensively, conceding seven goals in their last three. Argyle have lost their last four league games, which has fallen short of expectations this season, struggling to find consistency on the pitch. Their performances have frequently disappointed, leaving fans hoping for a turnaround.
Betting Tip: Both Teams Not To Score – 43/50 – QuickBet
AFC Wimbledon return to Plough Lane looking to build some momentum after recent results, which include a 1-0 home loss against Burton and a 5-0 away loss against Peterborough in their last two league fixtures. Wigan come into this fixture unbeaten in their last five in all competitions. However, Ryan Lowe’s side have drawn their last four games.
Betting Tip: Draw – 2/1 – Betway
Barnsley are set to host Luton at Oakwell, which is set to be an entertaining clash. The South Yorkshire side has experienced a mixed run of form in recent months, leaving them around mid-table. Fans have been encouraged by spells of attacking quality, but Defensive errors have cost them. Luton has recently picked up a brilliant run of form under Jack Wilshere, securing seven points from their last three. This includes an impressive 3-0 away win against Stockport County.
Betting Tip: First Half Draw – 6/5 – PricedUp
Bolton have been in excellent form recently, winning their last five. Wanderers have scored 15 goals in their last five games in all competitions. Steven Schumacher has implemented an attacking-minded style at Bolton, turning the Trotters into one of League One’s most dangerous sides. Bradford are currently one place above Bolton in the league, but the Bantams are winless in their last five, drawing four and losing their last league fixture 2-1 against Burton.
Mason Burstow is the league’s top goal scorer with seven goals and three assists to his name. This shows how important he’s been for BWFC. In the recent 4-0 win against Port Vale, his two assists displayed his contributions beyond scoring, and he will remain a key player in the push for promotion.
Betting Tip: Mason Burstow To Score – 6/5 – Betway
Leyton Orient welcome Blackpool, which should be a close fixture due to both teams being in the bottom half of the table, looking to avoid relegation. Historically, this game has been close. In their six most recent meetings, Orient have won three times, Blackpool twice, and one match ended in a draw. Their head-to-head clashes also tend to produce goals; many games go over 2.5.
Betting Tip: Over 2.5 Goals – 8/11 – BetMGM
With pressure growing on both teams, this should be a high-scoring fixture. Mansfield comes into this fixture on the back of a 2-1 loss against Northampton, and the Terriers come into this fixture on the back of three losses from their last four. Huddersfield have conceded eight in their last five, which highlights defensive vulnerabilities which can be exploited by the Stags. With both sides targeting a play-off spot, securing a win is crucial for both sides to keep their promotion hopes alive.
Betting Tip: Both Teams To Score – 4/6 – Spreadex
Northampton are currently 14th in the table with six wins, two draws and seven losses. They come into this fixture on the back of an impressive 2-1 home win against Mansfield. Kevin Nolan’s side will look to continue their momentum. They’ve conceded only five goals at Sixfields this season, with only Stevenage conceding fewer at home. Cardiff City may have benefitted from the timing of the international break, having suffered defeats in both the FA Cup and the league before their final EFL Trophy fixture against Arsenal’s academy, which they won 3-1. The Bluebirds will be looking to secure three points, which will push them closer to the automatic promotion places.
Betting Tip: Cardiff Win – 21/20 – QuickBet
Both sides come into this fixture with great form. Reading have secured seven points from their last three, with Rotherham managing 11 points from their last five. Reading’s home form has been strong, going unbeaten in their last five games at the SCL Stadium. They secured 1-0 wins over Stevenage and Northampton, and picked up draws against Doncaster and Mansfield. Rotherham’s away form is mixed. They’ve shown they can be solid, earning a 0-0 at Luton and a 1-0 win at Barnsley. But 2-1 defeats at Mansfield and Wimbledon highlight their tendency to concede when put under pressure.
Betting Tip: Reading Win – 31/40 – Betway
After an excellent start to the current campaign, Stevenage have dropped off slightly in recent outings, with two losses and one draw in their last three. Boro are without a clean sheet in their last six and were unable to score in their last two. Despite this, Alex Revell’s side will be looking to bounce back against a Doncaster side who have struggled recently. Rovers have a concerning away record. They have lost four of their last five league matches on the road, managing just two goals during that time. Defeats to Wigan, Luton, Leyton Orient, and Lincoln highlight a troubling and consistent pattern.
Betting Tip: Stevenage To Score 1st Goal – PricedUp
Wycombe have been excellent at Adams Park this season; they’ve won four of their last five at home, scoring seven in their last two. This includes a 3-0 win against Huddersfield and a 4-1 win against Leyton Orient. Lincoln’s recent league form has been a mix of highs and lows. They’ve secured impressive home wins against Doncaster and Stevenage, but their away performances remain a worry. In three of their last four league trips, Lincoln have failed to find the net, suffering a 3-0 defeat at Rotherham and a 1-0 loss at Leyton Orient.
Betting Tip: Draw – 13/5 - Spreadex
