Posted March 23rd, 2018 | By: Tom Dunstan

Competition: League One

Market: Shrewsbury to beat AFC Wimbledon

Odds: 3/4 @ Bet365

With the League One table reaching the business end of the season, English football’s third tier remains incredibly tight at both ends of the table with just a single point seeing a team jump several places. On that note, playoff hopefuls Shrewsbury will play host to League One relegation candidates AFC Wimbledon.

For the hosts on Saturday afternoon, after flirting with the relegation zone for most of last season, Shrewsbury have enjoyed an incredible run and still remain likely to be promoted to the Championship. After 37 League One games this season, Shrewsbury have won 22, drawn nine and lost six, scoring 50 and conceding just 28, the Shrews boast the second best defensive record in the league. With a points tally of 75, Shrewsbury currently hold a four-point buffer over third-place Wigan and now sit just a single point away from league leaders Blackburn. As for their recent form, they’re now unbeaten in their last five outings, winning four and drawing one.

As for visitors, AFC Wimbledon are currently enduring their own battle at the foot of the League One table. After 37 games this season, Wimbledon have won 11, drawn nine and lost 17, scoring 37 and conceding 48 in return, while they do have one of the best defensive records in the bottom half of the table, AFC Wimbledon still find themselves in a battle to secure their League One status come next season. With a points tally of 42, they now sit 19th in the table and hold just a four-point buffer over the drop zone. While Wimbledon have just lost one in their last five outings, the Wombles have just one away win since November 2017.
