Portsmouth can climb into the League One playoff positions with victory on Saturday, when they travel to Plough Lane where they will face AFC Wimbledon, who are unbeaten in five games across all competitions.
The home side currently sit 17th in the table but they do have a game in hand on every team around them, while Portsmouth are on a nine-game unbeaten run in League One.
We say: AFC Wimbledon 1-2 Portsmouth
With Wimbledon in good scoring form, it is likely that they will get on the scoresheet despite Portsmouth's good clean sheet record currently.
However, Pompey are likely to come away from Plough Lane with three points given their good form and confidence from three away wins on the bounce, and the Dons have leaked goals in certain games recently.

Rotherham United will travel to the Abbey Stadium to face Cambridge United on Saturday with the visitors looking to hold onto top spot in League One.
After losing last weekend, the hosts will be aiming to return to winning ways as they look to end Rotherham's 20 game unbeaten run in all competitions
We say: Cambridge United 1-3 Rotherham United
Cambridge will be the latest side to challenge Rotherham's unbeaten run, but we think that the Millers will have too much quality for the hosts on Saturday as they look to maintain their place at the top of the table.

Morecambe will play host to Fleetwood Town on Saturday, and a positive result for the home side could see them move out of the League One relegation zone.
Meanwhile, the visitors are in a precarious position in 19th place, with only two points separating themselves and their weekend opponents.
We say: Morecambe 1-2 Fleetwood Town
Although two points only separate the sides ahead of the weekend encounter, there is a disparity between the two teams in terms of form, and we think the side full of confidence will prevail on Saturday with the away side claiming all three points.

Two sides in a heated battle near the top of the League One table will face off on Saturday at Kassam Stadium when Oxford United host Wigan Athletic.
The Yellows overcame an early goal last weekend, coming back to beat MK Dons 2-1, moving into fifth place, three points behind the Latics, who conceded late in their 1-1 draw against Ipswich Town.
We say: Oxford United 1-2 Wigan Athletic
Wigan do not depend on one player to win, and although the loss of Cousins will be felt, there is still plenty of quality personnel on this team that can get the job done.
Oxford have been splendid at home this season, however, their depth and consistency is not as good as Wigan's, so we expect to see a determined Latics side, who know that this is their chance to take over the top spot with a game in hand on Rotherham.

Plymouth vs. Charlton (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Plymouth Argyle need a win to assure themselves a League One play-off spot for at least another week when they play host to Charlton Athletic from Home Park on Saturday.
The Pilgrims are winless in their previous five league fixtures, currently holding down the final play-off position, while the Addicks have moved up to 11th in the table and are unbeaten in four straight matches in all competitions.
We say: Plymouth Argyle 2-1 Charlton Athletic
The visitors have gotten a lot of fortunate bounces in recent matches but have not been at their best on the road this season, with their only significant victory coming at Sunderland, while their other positive away outcomes were versus weaker opponents.
Even though the results have not been there as often as they would have liked lately, the Pilgrims seem to be close to turning the corner, and we expect them to have a little more quality than their opponents on Saturday.

Shrewsbury Town come into their final League One fixture before the Christmas break desperate for a win when they welcome Cheltenham Town to New Meadow on Saturday.
The Shrews are narrowly above the relegation line at the moment, possessing a better goal difference than Morecambe, while the Robins are winless in four straight matches in all competition but have a chance to move into the top half of the table with a win this weekend and some help.
We say: Shrewsbury Town 2-2 Cheltenham Town
The Robins still have plenty of room for improvement defensively, while Salop do not have a ton of quality in attack, but should have their share of opportunities to score in this one.
Expect an exciting back and forth game from these sides who work extremely hard and can create surprising results against the stronger sides in League One.
