Wycombe's previous encounters against the seven new teams who will play in League One
Following AFC Wimbledon's 1-0 victory against Walsall in the League Two play-off final, all of the teams for the 2025/26 League One season have been confirmed. Coming from the division below, Wycombe Wanderers will face Doncaster Rovers, Bradford City and Port Vale as well as the original Dons, whilst Cardiff City, Plymouth Argyle and Luton Town have arrived following their relegations from the Championship. So, let us look back at when the Chairboys each faced these seven times in the league. Wycombe Wanderers 1-3 Luton Town, April 10, 2021 This fixture came at the back end of Wanderers' maiden season in the Championship, which saw them suffer relegation back down to the third tier in May of that year. Against the Hatters, Anis Mehmeti scored a first-half penalty to put Wanderers 1-0 up, but on 57 minutes, the game completely changed. Centre back and that year's Player of the Season, Josh Knight, was sent off for deliberately denying a goal-scoring opportunity. Luton gathered momentum and scored three goals in the final 10 minutes to secure all three points in South Buckinghamshire. Plymouth Argyle 1-0 Wycombe Wanderers, December 29, 2022 In what was the club's final league game of 2022, Wycombe travelled to Home Park to face Plymouth, who had beaten them 1-0 earlier in the season. Dan Scarr, once of Wanderers, scored the only goal of the game as Argyle continued to strive in the top two whilst Wycombe were battling in and around the play-offs. However, the game is best remembered for a concerning incident surrounding then-Chairboys striker Tjay De Barr. The Gibraltarian collapsed at the full-time whistle and was taken to hospital but was later discharged. He had taken a knock to the chest and began to cough up blood after the match had ended. Cardiff City 2-1 Wycombe Wanderers, April 24, 2021 The penultimate away league outing of Wycombe's Championship season, Wanderers knew that a win against the Bluebirds gave them a realistic chance of staying up. Kieffer Moore put the hosts ahead before Joe Jacobson, a Cardiff fan growing up, scored a penalty to bring the Chairboys level. But Moore's second late on, despite Will Vaulks' red card, gave the Welsh side the win. AFC Wimbledon 1-1 Wycombe Wanderers, April 18, 2022 Wycombe and Wimbledon have played each other a couple of times in the EFL Trophy since 2022, with the point on Easter Monday playing a huge part in their promotion push that year. Jack Rudoni put the Dons ahead before Adebayo Akinfenwa's late header, which was his last for the club against his former side, rescued a point. Wimbledon were relegated that year whilst Wycombe reached the play-off final, losing to Sunderland. Wycombe Wanderers 0-0 Bradford City, February 2, 2019 Despite Wycombe playing Bradford twice in cup matches during 2023/24 season, you have to go back to the 2018/19 campaign when the Chairboys faced the Bantams in the league. The encounter at Adams Park that day finished goalless, with the Yorkshire outfit suffering relegation to League Two that year. Wycombe avoided the drop with an end-of-season rally, with three wins from their last six games. Port Vale 1-2 Wycombe Wanderers, April 16, 2024 This mid-week fixture from just over a year ago saw David Wheeler put Wycombe a goal up inside four minutes before Ethan Chislett equalised moments after the break. Then, on a ramping run forward, on-loan Wolverhampton Wanderers man Nigel Lonwjik scored the winner with minutes remaining. Vale were relegated that year but only spent one season in League Two before a return to League One. Strikes from Garath McCleary and Anis Mehmeti easily wrapped up the win for Wycombe against Doncaster in the most recent clash between the two teams. Wanderers reached the play-off final that year whilst Donny were relegated to League Two. They would remain in the division for three years.

'All-round game can improve'
Bristol City forward Anis Mehmeti believes his "all-round game" can still improve after he scored both goals in the team's win against Stoke City. Mehmeti now has 11 goals this campaign as the club's leading scorer, almost three times as many as the four he scored in the Championship during 2023-24. "In terms of my all-round game, 100%, I can be more of a threat in one-v-one situations," Mehmeti told BBC Radio Bristol. "The type of guy that I am, when everything's going well for me I look forward, and my downfall is probably when things ain't going too great, I dwell on it too much. "I'm buzzing about hitting double figures now, and it's just about hitting as many goals as I can but also chipping in with assists, which I think I need to be doing." The win against Stoke moved Bristol City up to seventh and came after defeat by Swansea on Sunday. "I would probably describe it as a mature, professional win. We knew we had to win today because we lost on Sunday, so great reaction from the boys," Mehmeti said. "I thought today in the final third we were much more fluid, much better combined."
