League One Best Bets

Luton have been absolutely terrific this season, make no mistake. Not only did they put themselves into a phenomenal position under Nathan Jones, they then managed to continue that form into the Mick Harford reign - losing just once in 16 since he took charge.

They travel to Charlton this weekend and perhaps surprisingly, we're backing the hosts in this one. Charlton too have ridden a few waves through the season, and are now looking to extend their ten match unbeaten run, and hope to keep a fifth consecutive clean sheet. The absence of James Collins (40apps/22 goals) makes that realistic.

Luton are also missing Dan Potts (24/1) and Glen Rea (24/1) from the back and could also be without Danny Hylton (25/8) and Alan McCormack (18/0) who both face late fitness calls.

With a 13-5-2 home record this season, Charlton look value at 13/5 to win this one.

The cards could be stacked against Scunthorpe when they entertain Burton this weekend - with form and team news both weighted against them. The Iron have lost six of their last ten (2-2-6), despite playing seven of those against sides in the bottom half.

Today they make fitness checks on defenders Tom Pearce (8/1) and Cameron Borthwick-Jackson (26/2). If ruled out, they would join Tony McMahon (14/1), Josh Morris (15/4), Jordan Clarke (15/1), Matthew Lund (19/2) and Ryan Colclough (17/2) on the treatment table!

Burton retain slim hopes of nicking a play-off place, and have a 4-4-2 record over their past ten matches, including four wins in the last six.

At 29/20 Burton are worth backing here in my view.
