Blackpool vs Wycombe Prediction

Seasiders vs Chairboys: Bottom of the Table Battle

Preview

Right then, let's have a proper look at this scrap at the bottom. Blackpool are rock bottom of League One with just 8 points from 12 games, while Wycombe aren't much better sitting in 19th with 12 points. Both sides are struggling for form, but when these two meet, history tells us one thing - expect a draw!

Blackpool's recent form has been proper dodgy, losing four of their last five league games. They've been shut out in three of those defeats, including a 1-0 loss at Stockport and a 2-0 home defeat to AFC Wimbledon. They did manage a 1-0 win over Barnsley at home, but that's their only league victory since mid-September. The Seasiders are scoring just 1.1 goals per game and have only kept two clean sheets in their last ten matches.

Wycombe have been slightly better, picking up 1.4 points per game compared to Blackpool's 1.1. They've shown some fight recently with a 3-1 win over Fulham U21 and a 2-2 draw with Barnsley. But their away form is woeful - just one win in their last five trips on the road. They're scoring more than Blackpool (1.5 goals per game) but also concede slightly more.

Now here's the stat that catches the eye - these two have faced each other NINE times, and Blackpool have NEVER won! That's right, zero wins for the Seasiders. Seven of those nine meetings have ended in draws, including the last three encounters. At home, Blackpool's record against Wycombe is played four, drawn four, won none.

The venue analysis shows Blackpool have won half their home games this season, scoring 1.83 goals per game at their place. Wycombe, meanwhile, win just 20% of their away matches and only manage a goal per game on their travels.

Given both teams' struggles and that incredible head-to-head record, this has cagey draw written all over it. Neither side looks capable of putting a run together, and when they meet, they tend to cancel each other out.
