Fleetwood and Shrewsbury square off against each other at Highbury Stadium in an all-League Two EFL Cup round two clash. Fleetwood are unbeaten in the new season and will be looking to continue their solid start by securing a fourth consecutive clean sheet. The Cod Army have been difficult to beat recently, while their defensive record has improved significantly. No fresh injury worries are reported for the hosts, with both Andrew and McLean pushing for starting roles.
Shrewsbury, meanwhile, have endured a difficult start to the campaign and will be desperate to bounce back from a 3-1 defeat to Barnet in League Two. The Shrews have won just two of their last 10 matches, while their away form is particularly concerning, with no victories and just 0.40 points per game across their last five away fixtures. They have also scored only 0.40 goals per game in those matches. Midfielder Jack Price remains sidelined through injury.
Given Fleetwood's unbeaten start and superior recent form, punters worldwide can find value in betting on Home Win, alongside Fleetwood to Win to Nil and Under 3.5 goals (77% of the previous 22 H2Hs produced fewer than four goals).
This EFL Cup match will be played on Tuesday 25 August 2026 at 19:45.
