Wycombe v Tranmere Preview & Tips

Wycombe host Tranmere on Saturday afternoon at Adams Park with the visitors desperately struggling for goals. Read the Wycome v Tranmere match preview and predictions below.

The hosts currently sit 3rd in League One, just a single point off joint league leaders Rotherham and Coventry. Saturday’s match against struggling Tranmere is a real chance to go top of the table with both teams ahead of them having tricky away fixtures this week.

Wycombe have the best home record in League One so far this term having picked up 39 points from a possible 51 and averaging 1.82 goals per game. Those stats are a million miles away from Saturday’s rivals who have picked up just 8 points on the road all season and have conceded an average of 2.08 goals per game.

Tranmere are seven points deep into the relegation zone and not looking like they’re going to climb out any time soon. Micky Mellon’s side are now 10 games without a win with the last one coming back in mid-December. To make matters worse, his side haven’t scored a goal in their last six matches which is extremely worrying for a side which desperately needs points.

Wycombe v Tranmere Prediction

Saturday’s match sees two sides meet who are at opposite ends of the table and who have different priorities heading into the closing stages of the season. Unfortunately for Tranmere, we can’t see them getting anything out of this game due to the fact they haven’t been able to find the net even once in their last 6 matches. They have also averaged just 0.69 goals per game on the road this season and so a major improvement is needed if they want to take away a point or more.

The most likely result is a home win on Saturday and we’re backing Wycombe to do that along with the hosts to keep a clean sheet.
