KIRKHAM, ENGLAND - DECEMBER 01: Will Grigg hugs Michael Jacobs of Wigan Athletic after he scores during The Emirates FA Cup Second Round match between AFC

The stats-based Sky Sports Predictor is tipping Wigan and Bradford to win automatic promotion from Sky Bet League One this season.

Wigan currently occupy top spot in the division and are being heavily backed for at least a top-two finish, while Bradford, currently fifth, are expected to join them.

Shrewsbury, currently second, are set to drop into the play-offs, where they'll finish alongside Blackburn, Scunthorpe and Portsmouth.

Down at the bottom Plymouth, MK Dons, Bury and Northampton are all tipped to be relegated, meaning that AFC Wimbledon and Rochdale, currently in the bottom four, are being backed to escape the drop to League Two.

The Sky Sports predictor is based on a system called Elo, originally set up to rate chess players. It takes into account form, who your team still has left to play, and how well a team has done in previous seasons.
