Stockport County beat Peterborough United 1-0 on 26 September 2026, with Kyle Wootton on the scoresheet.
The win moved Stockport into fifth place in the League One log, keeping them firmly in the promotion picture.
Three of nine bookmakers have cut their odds on Stockport to win promotion from the English League One, with BetTom trimming the price from 6/5 to 3/4.
Stockport are the favourites to win promotion from the English League One, with a best price of 1/1 available at Bet Victor, ahead of Bradford City at 7/4 with Bet Victor and Leicester at 2/1 with Ladbrokes.
Stockport County gave the bookmakers plenty to think about with their 1-0 win over Peterborough United on 26 September 2026. The contest was settled in the 51st minute when a clearance ricocheted into the path of Kyle Wootton, who tucked away his sixth goal of the season. Goalkeeper Luca Ashby-Hammond kept a clean sheet, and it was that defensive resilience that stood out as much as anything. Manager Jim McNulty admitted his side had been "quite flippant" with their first-half chances before praising the way they saw the game out. That blend of a reliable back line and a striker in form is exactly why Stockport's price to win promotion from the English League One has been trimmed so sharply.
The market reaction makes sense given the run of results. Stockport had endured a bruising 4-3 home defeat to Leicester City on 12 September 2026, then ground out a 0-0 draw away at Sheffield Wednesday on 19 September 2026, so backing that up with three points and a clean sheet against Peterborough United was the kind of steadying win a promotion contender needs. With the Hatters now up to fifth and Wootton scoring for fun, three of nine bookmakers moved quickly, cutting their price in from 6/5 to 3/4 with BetTom and installing Stockport as the one to beat.

Can Stockport win promotion from the English League One?
Stockport are the favourites at a best price of 1/1 with Bet Victor, and on current form it is easy to see why the money has come for them. Bradford City sit next in the pecking order at 7/4 with Bet Victor, though their scheduled fixture against Barnsley on 26 September 2026 was postponed because of international call-ups in the Barnsley squad and pushed back to 24 November 2026, which robbed them of the chance to answer Stockport's statement. Leicester and the other chasers still have work to do to reel in the front-runners.
Stockport – 1/1 with Bet Victor
Bradford City – 7/4 with Bet Victor
Leicester – 2/1 with Ladbrokes
Sheffield Wednesday – 9/4 with Bet365

Can Stockport win promotion from the English League One this season?
The schedule now gives Stockport a real opportunity to build on this run. A busy October at Edgeley Park brings home fixtures against Barnsley on 10 October 2026, Bromley on 17 October 2026 and AFC Wimbledon on 31 October 2026, and stringing together more results like the one against Peterborough United would only strengthen their grip at the top of the market. With Wootton firing and a settled defence behind him, their position as favourites looks well earned, and if they keep this form going the 1/1 available at Bet Victor will not hang around for long.
