• ROI (Return On Investment) – Total profit or loss as a % of total stakes if £10 was staked on this team to win every game.

Important: If the stats on this page haven't updated then please clear your cache.

How Are The Profit & Loss Figures Calculated

As mentioned earlier, the Profit & Loss (P/L) statistics are calculated as if you were to back each team to win every game with £10 stakes using odds from bet365. The data is then added together cumulatively throughout the season to give the total profit or loss each team would gave generated.

ROI (Return On Investment) is calculated by dividing the total Profit/Loss by the number of matches played and then converted into a percentage.

Why Stats Help With Betting on England League One

It might sound obvious but betting on an event or events with as much prior knowledge as possible is the best and smartest way to gamble. If poker is a game of skill and slots are a games of chance, then stats can help by dislodging as much of the chance element as possible from betting and move it more to the skill end of the spectrum. That, in a nutshell, is why stats help with betting.

Bet With Knowledge

Knowledge is a bettor’s arsenal. By loading up with as much statistical knowledge as possible, we can make informed wagering decisions when we lay our money down. This way we are far, far more likely to see a positive return on investment which, aside from the fun element, is the whole point of betting. Look at the above table, read into what happened in the last matches played, look at home and away form and generally utilise the latest statistics as they are one of the key factors in successful betting.

Beat The Bookies At Their Own Game

Another reason to use stats to beat the bookies is because that is exactly what they are doing to beat you. Bookmakers always use statistics when they calculate their odds because their bread and butter relies on probabilities. Probabilities that we only know are probable because we, and they, have utilised all the information gathered in order to form our opinions. That’s why, in most cases the punter and the bookie agree, and we have, as a result, a short priced favourite. Our job, and again this is where stats help us greatly, is to work out when the long priced upsets will occur in which case we will well and truly have beaten the bookies at their own game.

Spot Value

If you want to be a profitable sports bettor, your focus always has to be on finding value bets. While betting through gut feelings and inklings might come off sometimes, in the long run, this won’t work. What you should be doing is supporting your bets with data – be it home form, expected goal (xG) metrics, head-to-head record or whatever else. The sporting world has become so statistical driven that there are endless amounts of data for you to interpret. Use them wisely.

League One Key Stats

After sifting through plenty of data, these are the key League 1 stats we’ve identified as being valuable for punters. Of course, you’ll have to decide which numbers are relevant and how to use them.

Previous League One Winners

Average Number of Goals Scored in League 1 Stats

Over the last 8 seasons, League 1 has seen an average of 2.6 goals per game. This is on par with the EFL Championship, which has averaged 2.61 goals per match, and is slightly lower than the Premier League, which has averaged 2.73 goals per match during the same period. If you’re wondering why less matches were played in 19/20 – COVID-19 forced the season to end prematurely and final league standings were calculated via Points per Match.

League 1 Stats – Home/Away Goals & Win Percentage Stats (All Teams)

Of course, as is the case in most leagues, League 1 home teams tend to win more matches than away teams. There are numerous factors which contribute to this. The crowd is often cited as the biggest one, though the exact relationship between crowd size and home support remains unclear according to a study by Pollard (2006). Other commonly mentioned factors include familiar surroundings, travel time, pitch size and referee bias.

League 1 Stats – Champions – Points Stats

Excluding the COVID-hit 19/20 season, League one champions have averaged 95 points while the runners up have averaged 89.4 points. Using Coventry’s points per game average of 1.97 in 2019/20, we can estimate that they would have finished the season with a total of 91 points, while runners up Rotherham would have finished with 81 points.

League 1 Stats –  Champions Home/Away Win Percentage

In 6 of the last 8 seasons, the League One champions have picked up more points at home than on the road. The biggest home tallies were amassed by Luton (18/19) and Wolves (13/14), who both got 55 points. Wigan Athletic picked up the most away points during the 2017/18 season when they got 51 points, amounting for a substantial 69.57% of their total points that year.

League One Stats – Champions Goals Stats

League One champions have scored an average of 1.8 goals per game over the past 8 seasons. Doncaster’s surprisingly low 1.35 average sticks out like a sore thumb here – they “only” found the net 62 times that year, 20 goals less than any other team who played a full season during this period. On the other hand, Bristol City’s 96 goals works out to an average of 2.08 goals per game, the highest of all these teams.

League One Stats – Champions Defence Stats

Attack wins you games, defence wins you titles is the age-old saying. Indeed, the League 1 champions have an average of 0.91 goals per game in the last 8 seasons. The 2013/14 Wolves team, who set the record points tally in this division, boasted a solid defence to say the least. They shut out the opposition on 25 occasions and only conceded 31 goals in the process that’s season.

League One Stats – Most Points in a League 1 Season

Wolves set the present record points tally for the English third division in 2013-14 when they finished the season with 103 points. They won 31, drew 10 and lost just 5 games during their League 1 campaign.

In doing so, Wolves surpassed the previous 103-point record set by Charlton Athletic in 2011-12. The “Addicks” won 30, drew 11 and lost 5 games that year.

League 1 Stats – Playoffs

Every League one season, the 3^rd, 4^th, 5^th and 6^th placed teams compete in a series of playoff matches to decide which team will be awarded promotion to the Championship.

Between 2012-13 to 2018-19, the average points needed to finish inside the playoff spots were the following:

Average points needed to finish 3^rd: 85
Average points needed to finish 4^th: 82
Average points needed to finish 5^th: 77
Average points needed to finish 6^th: 73

If we look through League 1 Playoff history, Sheffield United’s 90 points during the 2011-12 season is the highest achieved by a team that had to enter the playoffs (they subsequently lost). Conversely, Chesterfield reached the play-offs with just 69 points in 2014-15, the lowest in history, but failed to go on and win them.

League 1 Player Stats

These are the League one player stats that are most notable:

• Englishman Ian Henderson scored the highest number of goals in League 1 history, finding the net 122 times in 401 appearances.
• Huddersfield striker Jordan Rhodes scored the highest number of goals in a single League 1 season, with 36 during the 2011-12 season.
• David Martin’s 99 clean sheets is the most recorded by any goalkeeper in League 1 history.
• Dean Lewington has made the most appearances in League 1 history, 503 at the time of writing.
• Kwadwo Baah became the youngest goalscorer in the league’s history when he scored for Rochdale at just 17 years, 10 months and 18 days of age in 2020.
• Conversely, James Coppinger is the oldest player to have scored in League 1. The right midfielder netted at 39 years, 9 months and 16 days of age in 2020.
