"Starting with the hosts, while Port Vale might have only made their League One return this season, Darren Moore's men have a major battle on their hands in the race to extend on their third-tier status this time around. Last seen in EFL Trophy action earlier in the week suffering penalty shootout heartbreak at home against Fleetwood, the former Sheffield Wednesday boss finds his downbeat squad pencilled in as a landslide relegation contender."
"Getting Saturday's showdown underway sat with just their goal difference keeping them off the foot of the League One table, the Valiants look set for what will be another stern examination here. Putting in another worrying performance last weekend as they fell to a 4-0 drumming away at Bolton, Port Vale have lost four of their previous five appearances across all competitions."
"As for the visitors, although Wycombe might still be scrapping it out in the bottom-half of the League One standings, the Chairboys are enjoying what has become a recent purple patch. Last seen earlier in the week storming their way to a stellar 3-0 victory away at Gillingham, Michael Duff's men will be dreaming of a repeat display here. Making a major statement last weekend as they clinched a 4-1 romp at home against Leyton Orient."
Port Vale returned to League One this season but sit near the bottom, with goal difference keeping them off the foot of the table. Darren Moore's side have lost four of their last five matches and suffered heavy defeats, including a 4-0 loss at Bolton and a 3-0 home defeat to Stockport. The Valiants shipped seven goals in back-to-back defeats and exited the EFL Trophy on penalties to Fleetwood. Wycombe Wanderers occupy the bottom half but carry strong form, winning three consecutive matches by a combined 9-1, including victories over Leyton Orient and Gillingham.
