English League One Predictions and Betting Tips

League One Fixtures

The English League One has a traditional round-robin format where each of the 24 teams plays 46 games. In other words, every club plays the others once at home and once away. 

At the end of the season, three get promoted to the Championship. However, unlike the three spots for promotion, the league drops four teams and gets four from League Two.

At the same time, three clubs are demoted from the EFL Championship to replace the three promoted. In other words, the league has seven different clubs each season.

Unlike the demotion from the Championship, where three clubs directly drop to League One, the promotion is slightly different. The first two clubs get a direct spot, while those ranked from three to six head into the playoffs.

The first round of the League One playoffs is a two-legged clash. Each team gets the opportunity to play at home. However, the final match is played at Wembley and determines the third club to join the Championship.
