History of the Wycombe Wanderers v Mansfield Town fixture

Mansfield Town face a trip to Wycombe Wanderers at Adams Park on Saturday afternoon, looking to break their duck against the hosts. While the majority of previous matches have ended up drawn, a win has yet to be registered by Stags.

The most recent encounter between these two sides was just last season, in September 2006, the Chairboys carving out a narrow 1 - 0 victory in a League Two match.
