Our prediction for this League 2 match:
Hartlepool and Tranmere square off against each other at Victoria Park in what is expected to be a close League Two encounter. The Pools aim to build on back-to-back wins over Barrow and Crawley, but this game will be anything but a walk in the park for the home side. Marcus Carver should be recalled to the starting XI, while Jordan Cook remains on the sidelines through injury. Captain Nicky Featherstone, though, is back from suspension.
The Super Whites, on the other hand, aim to make amends for a 1-0 loss to Walsall. Tranmere produce much better showings at home than on the travels, and we do not believe that they are capable of grabbing more than one point from the midweek clash. A close encounter is on the cards at Victoria Park, and we are tempted to put our money on draw. Experienced midfielder Jay Spearing continues to miss out with injury, while Sam Foley is pushing for a start for the visitors.
Highlighted Player (Liam Feeney ):
Liam Feeney is an English footballer who plays for Tranmere Rovers as a midfielder. Born in Hammersmith, England on January 21, 1987, Feeney started his senior career at Hayes, and after scoring eight goals in 46 appearances for the club, he moved to Salisbury City in 2007.
The experienced footballer for several other English clubs as well, and, no doubt, Blackburn Rovers, Bournemouth, and Bolton Wanderers are the most notable ones. Nowadays Liam Feeney plays for Tranmere Rovers in the League two on loan from Blackpool. His main position is right wing, but he is capable of producing fine displays as a left winger as well.
Feeney made his League Two debut with Tranmere in a 3-0 loss to Cheltenham Town on September 19, 2020. His preferred foot is right, and he has a contract with the Whites until May 2021. The experienced winger has a dual citizenship (England/Jamaica).
Highlighted Team (Tranmere):
Based in Birkenhead, Merseyside, Tranmere Rovers are a professional club that compete in the League One. Tranmere were founded back in 1884 under the name of Belmont FC, with the football arms of cricket clubs Lyndhurst Wanderers and Belmont coming together. The club recorded their first win later in 1884 as they outclassed Brunswick Rovers 4-0.
Nowadays Tranmere Rovers play their home games at Prenton Park, the venue which can hold up to 15,567 people. The Rovers wear white shirts and blue shorts in home matches, but back in the 19th century orange and red were the dominating colours on their kit.
Tranmere fans see Bolton Wanderers as the club’s main rivals, but they have built a small rivalry with Chester City and Everton as well. The Prenton Park outfit did well to make it to the League Cup final in the 1993/1994 season, but Aston Villa proved to be a big catch for them in the title game.
