Saturday's League One predictions including MK Dons vs. Ipswich

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


AFC Wimbledon vs. Sunderland (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Sunderland will be looking to bounce back from three straight League One defeats when they continue their campaign away to AFC Wimbledon on Saturday afternoon.

The Black Cats will enter the contest off the back of a 2-1 loss at Cheltenham Town on Tuesday, while Wimbledon suffered a 1-0 defeat to Rotherham United on the same night.

We say: AFC Wimbledon 0-1 Sunderland


This is a huge match for both sides, and it will be fascinating to see what occurs on Saturday afternoon. We are expecting a cagey contest between two out-of-form teams but believe that Sunderland's additional quality will shine through to secure a hugely important three points at Plough Lane.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.

Accrington vs. Crewe (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Crewe Alexandra will look to put an end to a four-game losing run on Saturday, when they travel to the Wham Stadium to take on Accrington Stanley.

A poor run of form has seen the visitors drop to 23rd spot in the League One table, eight points adrift of safety, while their hosts sit 12th after an impressive victory last time out.

We say: Accrington Stanley 3-1 Crewe Alexandra


Given their current form, we cannot see Crewe leaving the Wham Stadium with anything on Saturday.

John Coleman's side will be boosted by an impressive win on Tuesday, while their visitors arrive devoid of confidence and with defensive issues that can be exploited.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.

Burton Albion vs. Cambridge (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Cambridge United will be looking for a victory that would see them leapfrog Burton Albion in the League One table, when they travel to the Pirelli Stadium on Saturday.

The hosts have won just once in their last five league games, while the U's are winless in their previous five matches in all competitions.

We say: Burton Albion 1-1 Cambridge United


Confidence is at a premium for both sides, and with the teams separated by just two points in the league table, we think that they may cancel each other out resulting in the encounter ending all square.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.

Cheltenham vs. Fleetwood (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Cheltenham Town and Fleetwood Town meet on Saturday afternoon with both clubs looking for the victory which will move them clear of the League One relegation zone.

As it stands, the two clubs occupy 16th and 19th place respectively, both having avoided defeat in their last three league fixtures.

We say: Cheltenham Town 1-1 Fleetwood Town


All things considered, this should be a competitive fixture between two evenly-matched teams. With the focus potentially on avoiding defeat over pushing for a win, a share of the spoils feels the most likely outcome.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.

Lincoln vs. Wycombe (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Lincoln City have the chance to clinch consecutive victories, when they welcome Wycombe Wanderers to the LNER stadium for a League One contest on Saturday.

Meanwhile, the Chairboys have faltered in recent weeks after picking up one point from their last three games.

We say: Lincoln City 2-1 Wycombe Wanderers


Lincoln City will be bouyed by their midweek victory, while Wycombe find themselves in a rut after a winless three game run, and we think the rejuvenated Imps will edge out the Chairboys on Saturday.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.

MK Dons vs. Ipswich (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Third-placed MK Dons have their sights set on finishing in an automatic promotion spot in League One this season, but they will have to continue their good form on Saturday, when they host Ipswich Town.

Wigan Athletic, who currently sit second, have four games in hand on MK Dons, suggesting that Liam Manning's side are not as close to the top two as it first seems, while Ipswich have a six-point gap to make up if they are to climb into the playoff places.

We say: MK Dons 1-1 Ipswich Town


Both sides are in good form which is why it is unlikely either team will lose this weekend, but it is expected to be a low-scoring draw with the two teams not often involved in high-scoring encounters.

With neither team scoring a lot of goals in their matches in recent weeks, they are likely to cancel each other out on Saturday with the spoils being shared in Milton Keynes.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.

Morecambe vs. Gillingham (Saturday, 3.00pm)

A crucial game in the fight for survival in League One takes place on Saturday, when 21st-placed Morecambe welcome 22nd-placed Gillingham to the Globe Arena in Lancashire.

The hosts currently sit four points above their visitors, and just one point away from safety, while Gillingham cannot afford to lose this weekend, as that could potentially leave them eight points adrift of Morecambe.

We say: Morecambe 1-2 Gillingham


Gillingham have been boosted by new manager Harris, and that could be the difference between the two sides on Saturday, with Morecambe winless in their last four outings.

Having scored two goals in Harris's first three games, Gillingham are likely to have worked on being more clinical in the final third, but they are unlikely to keep another clean sheet given their poor defensive record this season.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.

Oxford Utd vs. Bolton (Saturday, 3.00pm)

A key battle in the race for top six spots in the League One table will take place on Saturday, as fifth-placed Oxford United welcome 10th-placed Bolton Wanderers.

While the visitors sit 11 points behind their opponents, they have given themselves a chance of a playoff finish thanks to an eye-catching run of form in England's third tier.

We say: Oxford United 1-2 Bolton Wanderers


While Oxford have been the stronger side over the course of the season, the visitors find themselves in a formidable run of form, and we fancy them to extend their unbeaten streak with another hard-fought win.

Saturday certainly presents a particularly tricky test for Evatt's men, but, with sky-high confidence and the need to continue earning results to keep their playoff hopes alive, they will be difficult to stop.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.

Plymouth vs. Shrewsbury (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Plymouth Argyle will look to continue their bid to climb back into the top six of the League One table on Saturday, when they welcome Shrewsbury Town to Home Park.

The Pilgrims dropped out of the playoff places after a tough run of form but have since posted back-to-back victories heading into this weekend's clash.

We say: Plymouth Argyle 2-1 Shrewsbury Town


Given the form of the two sides, we can only envisage a narrow home win on Saturday.

Shrewsbury have proven themselves to be tough to defeat, but, with renewed confidence, the hosts will back themselves to get over the line in what will be a tough test.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 2.5 goals.

Portsmouth vs. Doncaster (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Having ended a run of six games without a victory last time out, Portsmouth welcome Doncaster Rovers to Fratton Park on Saturday.

The visitors, on the other hand, will be seeking to record a third consecutive away triumph and move off the bottom of the League One table.

We say: Portsmouth 2-1 Doncaster Rovers


Portsmouth do not have a great record in this fixture but now is as good a time as any to buck the trend given Doncaster's dire run of form. We are tipping the home side to come away with all three points come the end of the 90 minutes.

Our tipster partners are predicting a home win.

Wigan vs. Charlton (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Having both lost in midweek, League One title contenders Wigan Athletic and mid-table Charlton Athletic go head-to-head on Saturday, seeking to bounce back straight away.

While the hosts saw their run of 12 unbeaten league matches ended on Tuesday, their visitors suffered a 2-1 defeat to Bolton which leaves them 13th in the table.

We say: Wigan Athletic 1-1 Charlton Athletic


As Wigan are less effective at home and Charlton cannot find consistency away, a close-fought score draw could be on the cards when they meet on Saturday.

Such a result would suit neither side, but is the likeliest outcome given the hosts' recent inability to find the back of the net and kill off games.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 2.5 goals.
