Saturday's League One predictions including Ipswich vs. Peterborough

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

Aiming to keep up the pressure at the top of League One, second-placed Ipswich Town welcome an ailing Peterborough United to Portman Road on Saturday.

While Town are unbeaten in the league since October, their visitors have lost five of their last six in all competitions following last week's defeat at home to Barnsley.

We say: Ipswich Town 2-1 Peterborough United


Both teams know their way to the back of the net, so there is every chance of seeing goals for either side in Saturday's early kickoff. Given Peterborough's rough run of form and struggles on the road though, it could be Ipswich that take the spoils.

Our tipster partners are predicting a home win.

Shrewsbury vs. Bolton (Saturday, 12.30pm)

Shrewsbury Town will aim to continue their positive momentum in League One this weekend, when they take on Bolton Wanderers at Montgomery Waters Meadow on Saturday.

The hosts come into this one fresh from a victory over Lincoln City, while the visitors travel to Shropshire following a draw at home to Bristol Rovers.

We say: Shrewsbury Town 1-2 Bolton Wanderers


In a match with much at stake, we expect both sides to create plenty of opportunities as they search for the upper hand in proceedings.

On this occasion, Bolton will narrowly come out on top and keep their push for promotion from League One on the right track.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 2.5 goals.

Burton Albion vs. Derby (Saturday, 2.00pm)

Burton Albion will be looking to avoid being cut further adrift in the relegation zone when they host Derby County at the Pirelli Stadium in League One on Saturday afternoon.

The visitors have aims at the other end of the table, currently in seventh place and able to move into the playoff positions with a victory.

We say: Burton Albion 1-1 Derby County


Both teams have drawn a lot of their recent games, so we expect this one to be no different, despite the disparity in the league standings. Burton have shown signs of improvement under Maamria, and managed to get a point at home against first-placed Plymouth Argyle, so they have the ability to do the same on Saturday.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 2.5 goals.

Forest Green vs. Cheltenham (Saturday, 2.00pm)

Forest Green Rovers will be looking to move closer to climbing out of the League One drop zone on Saturday when they take on Cheltenham Town at the Bolt New Lawn Stadium.

The hosts come into this one off the back of a victory over Cambridge United, while the visitors travel to Nailsworth following a triumph over Charlton.

We say: Forest Green Rovers 1-1 Cheltenham Town


In a match with permutations in the lower half of the table, we expect both sides to compete vigorously to gain another three points in League One.

Nevertheless, there will be no separating the sides on the day, culminating in a point apiece for both Forest Green and Cheltenham.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 2.5 goals.

Accrington vs. Portsmouth (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Portsmouth will aim to break a five-game league winless run on Saturday, when they make the trip to take on Accrington Stanley.

A tough run of form has seen Danny Cowley's side drop to eighth place in the League One table, while their hosts have climbed to 19th spot and are unbeaten in four games in all competitions.

We say: Accrington Stanley 1-1 Portsmouth


Portsmouth boast more quality in their squad than the hosts, but Cowley's men are struggling for form in the third tier while Accrington are improving, and we only see the visitors leaving with another draw at the weekend amid their struggles.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 2.5 goals.

Bristol Rovers vs. Port Vale (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Bristol Rovers are looking to extend an unbeaten run of three games in League One when they welcome Port Vale to the Memorial Stadium on Saturday.

Meanwhile, the Vale come into this game off the back of two consecutive wins and could move into the playoff places with another victory here.

We say: Bristol Rovers 1-2 Port Vale


With both sides being in similar veins of form, we think this will be a tightly-contested affair.

However, Port Vale ended Plymouth's 100% home record last time out, so we fancy them to continue their good form here and make it three consecutive wins in the league.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 2.5 goals.

Cambridge vs. Plymouth (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Cambridge United will attempt to end a run of four league games without a win when they welcome Plymouth Argyle to the Abbey Stadium on Saturday.

The visitors, meanwhile, are looking to bounce back from a defeat to Port Vale and strengthen their position at the top of the table.

We say: Cambridge United 0-2 Plymouth Argyle


Despite suffering a setback against Port Vale last time out, we fancy Plymouth to respond with a win here at the Abbey Stadium.

Cambridge have conceded plenty of goals this season, and we think Plymouth will have too much firepower for them.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 2.5 goals.

Exeter vs. Sheff Weds (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Looking to stretch their unbeaten run to nine league matches, Sheffield Wednesday will make the long trip to take on Exeter City on Saturday.

After a draw away at Derby County last weekend, the visitors sit third in the League One table, just a single point outside of the automatic promotion spots, while their hosts sit 11th following their promotion last season.

We say: Exeter City 1-2 Sheffield Wednesday


Saturday's trip will certainly not be straightforward for Sheffield Wednesday, and the hosts have the attacking ability to cause the Owls serious issues, but we still see Darren Moore's side having enough to outclass their opponents and ramp up their pursuit of the top two with a return to winning ways.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 2.5 goals.

Lincoln vs. Wycombe (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Two sides separated by just two points in the middle of the League One table will do battle on Saturday, as Lincoln City entertain Wycombe Wanderers.

The visitors leapfrogged their hosts and climbed to 10th spot with a 2-0 beating of Portsmouth last weekend and now sit just three points outside of the playoff places.

We say: Lincoln City 1-2 Wycombe Wanderers


Wycombe boast plenty of quality in their squad, and we think it is only a matter of time until they charge towards the top six with a run of results.

Taking on a Lincoln side fresh from a disappointing defeat, Ainsworth's men should have enough to prevail and return home with all three points at the weekend.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 2.5 goals.

MK Dons vs. Fleetwood (Saturday, 3.00pm)

MK Dons and Fleetwood Town are both looking to end a four-game winless run in League One when they lock horns at Stadium MK on Saturday.

The hosts are currently five points from safety, while the Cods are six points clear of the relegation places.

We say: MK Dons 0-1 Fleetwood Town


Given their respective form, neither team will feel particularly confident about collecting maximum points at the weekend.

Nevertheless, MK Dons have been unable to avoid defeat on their home patch since August, so we think Fleetwood could edge this game.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 2.5 goals.

Morecambe vs. Charlton (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Morecambe are seeking to get their first win in the league since October when they play host to Charlton Athletic at the Mazuma Stadium this Saturday.

The visitors, meanwhile, are aiming to end a run of five consecutive games without a victory in all competitions, and will enter this contest fresh off the back of a 3-1 defeat to Stockport County in the FA Cup second round.

We say: Morecambe 1-1 Charlton Athletic


With neither side in particularly good form, that may suit the hosts as they look to cause an upset.

However, we think this will be a tightly-contested affair at the Mazuma Stadium, as Charlton have only won once on their travels while Morecambe have the second-worst home record in the division.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 2.5 goals.

Oxford Utd vs. Barnsley (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Promotion hopefuls Barnsley will be out to record a fifth League One win on the bounce when they travel to the Kassam Stadium to face Oxford United on Saturday afternoon.

Karl Robinson's side played out a 1-1 draw with Accrington Stanley in their most recent match, while the visitors bested Peterborough United 2-1.

We say: Oxford United 1-2 Barnsley


Putting the ball into the back of the net has not been a problem for Oxford United, but keeping the opposition at bay is not their forte, and a goal-happy Barnsley are sure to take advantage of such frailties.

The Tykes' stellar defensive record on the road should also come into play, and even with a couple more injury concerns to work around, we still expect Duff's men to travel back to South Yorkshire with another three points in the bag.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 2.5 goals.
