Scunthorpe travel to Oxford in a meeting which sees two sides in very different form right now. Scunthorpe have an outside chance of finishing in the top half after a great run which has seen them win six and draw two of their last 10.

That's more points collected in 10 matches as they managed in the previous 23 combined.Recent results haven't just landed on their plate either - one of their two defeats came at Barnsley, while they have taken points against Doncaster and Sunderland.
Oxford have really stuggled since Christmas, with a 2-5-7 run since gobbling their Turkeys. Recent reversals at Accrington (4-2) and at home to Peterborough (1-0) were clearly poor results. All said, I'm shocked to see Oxford odds-on across the board in this one and would be much closer to a split down the middle match myself.
3pts Scunthorpe to beat Oxford (Draw No Bet) at 9/4 (Bet365)
Doncaster take on a Charlton side who must be rueing the loss of Karlan Grant now that they look so spineless in attack following his departure.
Since their former talisman left, they have scored just three times in four matches, and required a late winner to see off bottom side AFC Wimbledon last weekend.
Doncaster come into this match without Tom Anderson and Joe Wright, while Niall Mason is out after a recent court appearance for sexual assault, but the latter has been out for a good while now so shouldn't affect things too much. Charlton will be without Darren Pratley and Tariqe Fosu-Henry.
Doncaster have scored 2+ goals in 10 of their last 11 matches, and look decent value to win this one at 6/5.

Luton are unbeaten at home all season in League One - winning 13 and drawing four of their 17 home matches this campaign. Nine of those 13 have been won by two or more goals as they have racked up an impressive 42-12 goals f/a column this season and they should be trusted to beat Rochdale. Luton is should not be forgetting have now won 14 of thier last 21 matches, with a further six draws. The solitary defeat coming against Championship side Sheffield Wednesday.
Rochdale are once more fighting relegation, as they did in 2017/18, and have a -30 goal difference this season already. Their 39 goals against on the road is a divisional high - no other side have conceded more than 32. With nine defeats in 11 their should only be one winner in this match.
2pts Luton (-1) to beat Rochdale at 6/5 (General)
