Thursday's League One predictions including Portsmouth vs. Ipswich Town

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


Barnsley vs. Fleetwood (Thursday, 7.45pm)

Barnsley will look to make it seven league games unbeaten on Thursday, when they welcome Fleetwood Town to Oakwell.

The hosts have climbed to fourth spot in the League One table thanks to their eye-catching run of form, while the visitors sit 16th following a defeat to Sheffield Wednesday on Boxing Day.

We say: Barnsley 2-1 Fleetwood Town


Barnsley find themselves in fine form and will be keen to return to winning ways on Thursday after a slightly disappointing draw last time out.

Given the difference in quality between the squads, and the confidence Duff's men will have, we can only envisage them taking all three points at Oakwell.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Bristol Rovers vs. Exeter (Thursday, 7.45pm)

Bristol Rovers will be aiming to bounce back from their Boxing Day defeat when they host Exeter City in League One on Thursday evening.

Exeter, meanwhile, drew for the third time in four matches as they squandered an opportunity to move into the top half of the table.

We say: Bristol Rovers 2-1 Exeter City


Both teams enjoy playing on the front foot, so it would be a surprise if either team managed a clean sheet at Memorial Stadium on Thursday evening.

However, Bristol Rovers are undoubtedly in better form at present, with Barton hoping to claim his side's fourth win in six league matches.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Two sides who are currently in the League One relegation zone will go head-to-head on Thursday when Forest Green Rovers play host to Burton Albion.

The home side are sat in 22nd place, with two points separating them from safety, while Burton are just one point behind in 23rd position.

We say: Forest Green Rovers 1-2 Burton Albion


Although Forest Green have won their last three home games, Burton would have taken confidence from their 3-0 win over Lincoln, and after beating their opponents earlier in the season, we think that the Brewers will claim a narrow victory on Thursday.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Morecambe vs. Accrington (Thursday, 7.45pm)

Morecambe will attempt to end an 11-game winless run in all competitions when they welcome Accrington Stanley to the Mazuma Stadium on Thursday.

The visitors, who sit just outside the League One relegation zone, have proven to be a tough team to beat in recent weeks after avoiding defeat in their last six competitive games.

We say: Morecambe 1-2 Accrington Stanley


Morecambe may be winless in 11 games in all competitions, but they have avoided defeat in their last four home games, and with their previous three home matches finishing all square, we think they will playing out another draw on Thursday.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Oxford Utd vs. Charlton (Thursday, 7.45pm)

Dean Holden will go in search of a first victory as Charlton Athletic manager on Thursday, when they travel to take on Oxford United.

The new boss began his reign with a draw against Peterborough United on Boxing Day, extending the Addicks' wait for a return to winning ways in League One, while their hosts are also four matches without a victory in England's third tier.

We say: Oxford United 1-2 Charlton Athletic


Both teams are struggling for form in the league, but the introduction of Holden may have a positive effect on the visitors after an opening draw, and we see them being boosted and ending their winless run on Thursday.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Peterborough vs. MK Dons (Thursday, 7.45pm)

Peterborough United will be aiming to end a winless run of five league games when they host Milton Keynes Dons on Thursday evening.

The visitors, meanwhile, could climb out of the relegation places by securing a third successive victory.

We say: Peterborough United 1-1 MK Dons


The visitors are unquestionably in better form heading into this match, having seemingly put their early season woes behind them.

As such, we expect an entertaining encounter, with both teams unlikely to be too perturbed by gaining a point should the match be heading into that direction.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Plymouth vs. Wycombe (Thursday, 7.45pm)

League One leaders Plymouth Argyle will try to claim a third consecutive league victory when they welcome Wycombe Wanderers to Home Park on Thursday.

Like their hosts, Wycombe are also in impressive form, and they will be looking to extend their unbeaten run to five matches.

We say: Plymouth Argyle 2-1 Wycombe Wanderers


Wycombe may be unbeaten in four league games, but they will face a Plymouth side who have won 10 of their 11 home league matches this season, and we think that the Pilgrims will continue their impressive home form by claiming another victory on Thursday.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Portsmouth vs. Ipswich (Thursday, 7.45pm)

Portsmouth will face Ipswich Town for the third time this term when the two sides face off in League One on Thursday.

The previous two meetings have resulted in a win apiece after Ipswich claimed a 3-2 league victory in October, while Pompey recorded a 2-0 win in the EFL Trophy last month.

We say: Portsmouth 1-2 Ipswich Town


While Pompey are winless in seven league games, Ipswich have only lost one of their last nine matches in League One, and with momentum in their favour, we think the visitors will claim a narrow victory on Thursday.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Sheff Weds vs. Port Vale (Thursday, 7.45pm)

Both looking to build on Boxing Day victories, Sheffield Wednesday and Port Vale will square off at Hillsborough on Thursday.

The hosts remain just two points outside of the top two in the League One table after beating Fleetwood Town on Monday, while their visitors climbed to ninth spot with a win over Morecambe.

We say: Sheffield Wednesday 2-0 Port Vale


Port Vale travel to Hillsborough with confidence from their recent form, but we see the Owls being too strong, particularly on home turf, and back Moore's men to triumph again.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Shrewsbury vs. Cheltenham (Thursday, 7.45pm)

Shrewsbury Town will be looking to remain in the top half of the League One table when they host Cheltenham Town on Thursday evening.

Cheltenham, meanwhile, can move one point behind their forthcoming opponents by claiming a victory.

We say: Shrewsbury Town 0-0 Cheltenham Town


With both sides generally more effective defensively than offensively, we can envisage a stalemate playing out at Montgomery Waters Meadow on Thursday.

Both managers tend to prefer a 3-4-1-2 formation, too, increasing the chances of the two sets of players cancelling each other out on the day.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.
