Wycombe are in the hunt for a playoff spot with just four points keeping them from those coveted spots. They can’t afford to drop points in games like this if they want to secure a top six finish as they welcome bottom of the table Port Vale.

Port Vale look resigned to the drop with 11 points currently keeping them from safety. They’ve only won four of their 18 away matches in League One this term, losing 11 of these games and conceding 27 goals in the process. 

Port Vale have struggled for goals on the road as well this season with just 13 across their 18 away matches - the joint worst scoring record of any side in League Two this season. Their recent form also feeds into this angle with Port Vale winning just one of their last five matches across all competitions. 

Wycombe have been strong at home this season, winning 11 of their 19 home matches and losing just five of these games. They should have far superior firepower than Port Vale with 37 goals scored across these games (1.94 goals per game), which should emerge as the key point of difference between these sides.

Stockport’s home games have been quite chaotic this season with 50 goals across their 18 home matches (2.77 per game). Stockport have managed to come out on top in 10 of these games, and host Wimbledon needing to secure all three points to cement their spot in the playoffs which is currently under threat.

Stockport’s home record lines up quite well with how many goals Wimbledon are seeing on the road in League One this term. They’ve conceded 36 goals across their 19 away matches (1.89 per game), but have managed to offset this by netting 25 goals themselves which has led to Wimbledon managing to avoid defeat in 10 of these games.

No side has conceded more goals on the road than Wimbledon in League One this season, so there is scope for Stockport to cover this line on their own. Stockport have seen 2+ goals in four of their last five matches across all competitions, while Wimbledon have seen 2+ goals in three of their last five matches across all competitions. 

This is a massive game in the League Two playoff race with these two sides pretty much sitting neck and neck ahead of this weekend. You essentially have five teams left fighting for one playoff spot in League Two with the top six starting to cut adrift of the chasing pack.

Crewe sit just one point behind Oldham in the table, though crucially Oldham have a game in hand on Crewe and the sides around them. Crewe have seen 54 goals across their 19 home games in League Two this term (2.84 per game).

Crewe have seen 2+ goals in each of their last five matches across all competitions, and will feel slightly more urgent in trying to earn all three points here given that Oldham have a slight advantage over them with their game in hand.

Oldham come into this clash in excellent form, having won each of their last five matches across all competitions, so they are unlikely to roll over for Crewe in this crucial clash which should result in at least two goals given what is at stake for both sides.

Exeter are in real trouble at the moment and have been inching closer to the relegation zone over the last few weeks. They’ve failed to win a game since the end of January, and could be faced by quite a toxic home atmosphere here having lost each of their last five matches.

Leyton Orient come into this clash in opposite form having won each of their last four matches, a run that has pulled them away from the drop zone and makes this match even more important as a win for Exeter would drag Leyton Orient right back into the relegation battle.

Leyton Orient ran out 2-1 winners when the sides met earlier in the season, and managed to come away 6-2 winners when they last travelled to St James’ Park to face Exeter in January last year. All signs point to Leyton Orient extending the misery of Exeter who continue to slip towards the drop zone. 

This is a massive game for Exeter, and one that could turn into a real toxic atmosphere. The home side have not won a game in any competition since the end of January, losing seven of their 13 games since that win - including each of their last five matches.

Three of these recent defeats have seen 3+ goals, and they now face up against a Leyton Orient side who have been pushing in the opposite direction with four straight wins coming into this clash, with three of those triumphs seeing 3+ goals.

The initial league meeting between these sides saw 3+ goals as Leyton Orient ran out 2-1 winners at home. There was a combined xG of 3.37 produced on that occasion, and the meeting prior to that produced eight goals, with Leyton Orient coming away 6-2 winners on their last visit to St James’ Park.

Newport have looked a beaten side at points during this campaign, but have managed to claw themselves out of the relegation zone. They sit one point above Harrogate and two above Barrow, though the bottom placed side crucially have a game in hand on the two sides marginally above them.

Only Tranmere (69) have conceded more goals in League Two this season than Newport (67), with 3+ goals landing in four of their last five matches across all competitions. No side has kept fewer clean sheets than Newport (6) in League Two this term, showing how vulnerable they are at the back.

Shrewsbury also looked in danger for periods of the campaign, but have since pulled away and now have a 10 point buffer to the drop zone. They’ve seen 3+ goals in three of their last five matches across all competitions, but have grown a little more complacent in recent weeks, with just one win from their last five matches in League Two.

Both of these sides currently sit in the playoff spots, with a six point buffer to the chasing pack in the Eerste Divisie. The Dutch second division is such a volatile league so their position in the playoffs is far from secure, and three points here could go a long way in furthering the promotion aims of either side.

De Graafschap have seen 3+ goals in each of their last four matches across all competitions, winning just one of these games. Their away games in the Eerste Divisie this season have been really entertaining, with 50 goals across their 15 games on the road this term (3.33 per game). 

Willem II have seen 3+ goals in three of their last five matches across all competitions, including each of the last two games, with their most recent assignment ending in a 5-0 win over Maastricht on the road. The initial league meeting between these sides finished 1-1, with five of the last seven head-to-head clashes seeing 3+ goals.

There is still an outside chance for both of these sides to enter the playoff conversation between now and the end of the season, but a win is likely needed here to keep those hopes alive, with eight points keeping Eindhoven from the playoff spots, while Emmen are 11 points adrift.

Emmen managed to cover this line on their own when the sides last met, coming away 6-0 winners at home and scoring these goals from just nine shots on target. Four of the last five meetings between these sides have seen 3+ goals.

Eindhoven have seen 3+ goals in each of their last five matches across all competitions, winning two of these games, with all five of these matches finishing 2-1 in either direction. Emmen have seen 3+ goals in three of their last five matches across all competitions, and notably have conceded 31 goals across their 15 away matches in the Eerste Divisie this season (2.06 per game).
