We have new leaders of Sky Bet - MK Dons!! Note - previous leaders Lincoln City did not play today due to international call ups.

MK Dons 2-0 Macclesfield

The stars of today are Luton in Sky Bet League One

Luton 5-1 Plymouth


88' London Road late drama??

Can League One's bottom club Bradford City hold on at Peterborough - it's currently 1-1

The home side are putting the pressure on though - 63% possession now and 5 shots on target. Sky Bet have them to win at 13/2. Bradford to win at 16/1


86' 🌩 GOAL UPDATE 🌩

Forest Green 0-1 Morecambe - Wildig 86 mins

Notts County 0-3 Cheltenham - Barnett makes it another terrible week for Notts County, who slip into the Sky Bet League Two relegation zone on goal difference, from the side beating them right now!!!


85' 6⃣ SUPER 6 UPDATE 6⃣

Sunderland's unbeaten record at home could be back in tacked - they've levelled with Wycombe 1-1.

Five minutes left here and it is now end to end, with both sides going for it. Will there be a winner...

Sky Bet have Sunderland to win at 4/1 and 9/2 to get next goal; Wycombe to win at 16/1 and next goal at 16/1; the draw at 1/6. Bet here


85' 🌩 GOAL UPDATE 🌩

Grimsby 1-0 Crawley - Rose finally breaks the deadlock there

Bristol Rovers 0-2 Scunthorpe - Lund surely seals the win for Stuart McCall's side

Crewe 3-2 Tranmere - Banks pulls one back for the visitors


83' OUR BETS UPDATE

We had Newport to win and they are 2-0 up against Colchester, if we can get more goals that will bring us the win and over 3.5 goal at 8/1.

Sunderland need an equaliser at home to Wycombe, so if that could come from Honeyman that would help us out, as we had him to score at 7/2

We also had Cornick at 20/1 to score two or more for Luton and we aren't sure how he hasn't got on the scoresheet yet with his team 5-0 up!


82' 6⃣ SUPER 6 UPDATE 6⃣


80' 🌩 GOAL UPDATE 🌩

Luton are at it again, as Collins completes his hat trick - now 5-0 up against Plymouth

He deserves another fig


75' 🌩 GOAL UPDATE 🌩

All going Newport's way after a quiet first half. Now 2-0 up against Colchester. We had them to win and over 3.5 goals at 8/1 - so come on lads - lets get a couple more please.

Other scores

Southend 1-1 Blackpool

Oldham 2-1 Cambridge

Bury 2-0 Stevenage

Crewe 3-1 Tranmere

Mansfield 1-0 Port Vale


NOTTS COUNTY BOSS

Now I'm not sure who would want to be the next Notts County boss. Yes, a great club, history and stadium, but two managers sacked already and near the bottom of Sky Bet League Two.

Currently Martin Allen is the favourite at 5/2; with Paul Hurst 3/1; Kevin Nolan to retuen at 4/1; Michael Appleton at 4/1 too.

Check out the Sky Bet market for Notts County's next manager here.


67' β€Ό SPORTING LIFE ACCA UPDATE β€Ό

So let's go quite on this now, you can't be right all the time. It started so well with Luton's fine display. But with Sunderland losing and now, more damagingly, Notts County are now 2-0 at home to Cheltenham


66' 6⃣ SUPER 6 UPDATE 6⃣

WOW, Wycombe have just one away win this campaign, Sunderland have not lost at home this season, so guess what....

Sunderland 0-1 Wycombe

This is why the EFL is great, so unpredictable


65' 6⃣ SUPER 6 UPDATE 6⃣

Peterborough have equalised at home to Bradford City and Burton lead at home to Coventry

And now Shrewbury have made it 2-2 at home to Rochdale

What does all that do for your Super 6? This is how it stands now

  • Burton 1-0 Coventry
  • Luton 4-0 Plymouth
  • Peterborough 1-1 Bradford
  • Shrewsbury 2-2 Rochdale
  • Sunderland 0-0 Wycombe
  • Accrington 0-1 Barnsley

64' β€Ό SPORTING LIFE ACCA UPDATE β€Ό

So not great now, Luton have done us proud, bur Shrewsbury are now losing, as are Notts County, while Sunderland are still 0-0 at home to Wycombe


62' 🌩 GOAL UPDATE 🌩

Newport 1-0 Colchester - Matt

Shrewsbury 1-2 Rochdale - Williams

Oldham 1-1 Cambridge - Edmundsdon

Does this Tweet remind you of anything? Rochdale needs you!!!


60' 🌠 STARS SO FAR 🌠

LUTON are our stars of the day so far. Part of today's Super 6 and our Sporting Life ACCA and are 4-0 at home to poor Plymouth. Collins has two now, the second from the penalty spot.

We just need Cornick to score now to bring in our EFL Expert Tom Carduff's pre-match tip up.

55' 🌩 GOAL UPDATE 🌩

Swindon 0-2 Carlisle - Slater

As it stand that keeps Carlisle 11th in Sky Bet League Two, with Swindon in 17th

Carlisle have had 3 shots on target and are now 2/1 to get the next goal of the game to seal the win. Click here to place your bets


😱 DRONE STOPS PLAY 😱

Doncaster 1-1 AFC Wimbledon - the second half is about to start, but wait.. is it a bird, it is a plane, no it is Superma..... no, sorry, it's a drone apparently.

The ref, managers and players are looking upwards and cannot do anything until it moves away from the Keepmoat Stadium airspace


45' SECOND HALF

We are underway in the second half for most games, but no more goals..... yet


6⃣ SUPER 6 UPDATE 6⃣

At half-time there are around 2,000 players left in Super 6.

This is mainly due to Bradford leading against Peterborough but also because Luton are beating Plymouth 4-0.

Are you one of those still in, if so then tweet us at @SportinglifeFC to tell us what results you need to stay the same or to change to give you a great win


🚨 SKY BET PRICE BOOST 🚨

Sky Bet have Sunderland & Luton to win & Accrington & Barnsley to draw now at 9/1. CLICK HERE to check that out.


HALF TIME ADVICE

So, looking for some value in the second half...

Well, Exeter have yet to lose a game when Jayden Stockley has scored. He's done that today, to give Exeter a 2-1 lead over Northampton. Well Exeter are now 1/3 to win, 11/10 to score the next goal. while it is 3/1 for no more goals.

Exeter have had 6 shots on target, so for them to score next might be worth a look.


⏳HALF TIME ⏳

Ok, so this is the situation at half time. Get all your half time scores here (but please come back here after).

SUPER 6

  • Burton 0-0 Coventry
  • Luton 4-0 Plymouth
  • Peterborough 0-1 Bradford
  • Shrewsbury 1-1 Rochdale
  • Sunderland 0-0 Wycombe
  • Accrington 0-1 Barnsley

Sporting Life ACCA

Luton lead, Shrewsbury and Sunderland are level; and Notts County are losing - work to be done


45' β€Ό SPORTING LIFE ACCA UPDATE β€Ό

Oh no - well from a Sporting Life ACCA point of view anyway, but not from a Cheltenham point of view. They lead at managerless Notts Count 0-1 at half time.


44' 🌩 GOAL UPDATE 🌩

Swindon 0-1 Carlisle - Nadesan

Exeter 2-1 Northampton - Stockley


42' ELSEWHERE

I know this is a football blog, but I confess to having an eye on the rugby. I tipped a slow start from England against Japan and for it to be close at half time. I admit bottling calling Japan to lead at half time and England to win overall.

So in the end I called Japan on the +15 handicap at half time. Well - they lead England at Twickenham 10-15 at half time - WHAT???!!!!


39' 🌩 GOAL UPDATE 🌩

Doncaster 1-1 AFC Wimbledon - Crawford

Accrington 0-1 Barnsley - Woodrow

Crewe 1-1 Tranmere - Norwood

Tranmere's James Norwood was part of the Sporting Life Goal Scorer Treble, which we got boosted to 11/1!!!


36' MANAGER MARKETS

Talking of Shrewsbury and their search for a new manager.

Sam Ricketts is 6/5 favourite currently; with former boss Paul Hurst 9/4.

But Michael Flynn, the Newport boss, is the latest in the whisper the Sporting Life team are hearin. He is currently 5/2 with Sky Bet to move to Shrewsbury. Check that out here.

Michael Flynn ahead of Newport's FA Cup tie
Newport's Michael Flynn - could he be moving?


35' β€Ό SPORTING LIFE ACCA UPDATE β€Ό

Managerless Shrewsbury are now 1-0 up against Rochdale at home!

That's now 2 our of 4 winning for our Sporting Life ACCA; while it's also another Super 6 game - how's it affect you?


30' 6⃣ SUPER 6 UPDATE 6⃣

Only one game from the six Super 6 has goals in them so far and they've all gone to Luton...

Luton 3-0 Plymouth

I'm really loving the Luton Social Media Team


29' 🌩 GOAL UPDATE 🌩

Bradford City, bottom of League One need some joy ASAP, but surely it won't start today away to high flying Peterborough? Surely??, well....

Shrewsbury boast a decent home record this season having lost just one of their last five, while Rochdale have won one in five away.

Sunderland are unbeaten in front of their own supporters. Wycombe have just one away win this campaign.

Notts County hope sacking Harry Kewell will bring better success, starting today. Visitors Cheltenham have lost three of their last four on the road.


1425: Sunderland v Wycombe

George Honeyman is names in the starting 11 for Sunderland, as they look to take top spot in Sky Bet League One.

Our EFL Expert Tom Carduff has him to score anytime at 7/2. Why? Well, the attacking midfielder has four goals and three assists already this season, including two in his last three.

1416: Newport v Colchester

Meanwhile in League Two Newport are looking for their first league win in FIVE attempts today, as they host Colchester. However they have won their last two, both in cup competitions, while Colchester sit 14th in the away league form standings.

So we are going for Newport to win and over 3.5 goals in the match at 8/1

1410: Luton v Plymouth

Henry Cornick starts for Luton today and Sporting Life's EFL Expert Tom Carduff has tipped him to score two or more at 20/1.

Cornick found the net in Luton's 2-0 victory over Wycombe in the FA Cup, starting as a striker and playing the full 90 minutes. It was his third goal of the season, which is a decent tally given that the majority of his appearances have come from the bench.
