Plymouth

Plymouth

Fleetwood take on Plymouth at their Highbury Stadium in the League One round 2. The Cod Army aim to bounce back from a 2-1 loss to Port Vale, and they are likely to go all guns blazing at Plymouth. Both Garner and Harrison are pushing for a start as Scott Brown should opt to make changes to the starting XI that lost the season opener. The Pilgrims, on the other hand, defeate... Read More...

Port Vale

Port Vale

St James Park will host Saturday’s football game between Exeter and Port Vale. The hosts played out a 1-1 draw with Lincoln in the season opener, but it has to be noted that they had no more than seven goal attempts in the LNER stadium clash. Since there are no fresh injury worries in the home team, head coach Matt Taylor is unlikely to make changes to the starting XI. ... Read More...

Derby

Derby

There will be fireworks when Charlton Athletic and Derby County square off against each other at the Valley on Matchday 2. The Red Robins played out a 2-2 draw with Accrington in the opening match of the season, with Scott Fraser opening his goal-scoring account. Teenager Miles Leaburn, who got his name on the scoresheet at the weekend as well, is pushing for a start, while ... Read More...

Bristol Rovers

Bristol Rovers

Burton Albion will look to put an end to their six-game losing run which include pre-season friendlies when they take on Bristol Rovers in the League One round 2. The Brewers suffered a heavy 3-0 loss to Wycombe in their opener, and, no doubt, they are low on spirits ahead of Saturday’s clash. Summer signing Quevin De Castro should keep his place in the starting line-up de... Read More...

Wycombe

Wycombe

University of Bolton Stadium will host Saturday’s football game between Bolton and Wycombe, the two teams who faced each other in some low-scoring matches in the past. Bolton kicked off the new League One campaign with a 1-1 draw with Ipswich Town, while Wycombe impressed in a 3-0 triumph over Burton. The Trotters are eager to record their first win of the process, but the... Read More...

Cheltenham

Cheltenham

Barnsley will look to bounce back from a 1-0 loss to Plymouth when they take on Cheltenham Town in their first home game of the season. The Tykes failed to impress in their opener, with the team taking only one shot on target in the Home Park defeat, but the bookies still see them as favourites to win Saturday’s clash. Summer signing James Norwood is widely expected to mak... Read More...

Burton

Burton

Wycombe and Burton face each other at Adams Park in the opening match of the 2022/2023 League One season. The Chairboys are seen as one of the main candidates for promotion, but they will have to prove their worth on the field. A man to keep an eye on in the home team will be experienced attacker Sam Vokes, who scored 17 goals last season. The club chiefs have not been too a... Read More...

Portsmouth

The ground at legendary Hillsborough stadium will shake when Sheffield Wednesday and Portsmouth take on each other in the opening match of the season. The Owls failed to impress in the 2021/2022 League One season, and, no doubt, they are desperate to make amends for the unsuccessful campaign. The likes of David Stockdale, Ben Heneghan, Michael Ihiekwe, Michael Smith, Will Va... Read More...

Fleetwood

Fleetwood

Vale Park will host Saturday’s League One opener between Port Vale and Fleetwood, the two teams who meet in the English third tier for the first time since April 2017. Back then the two teams played out a goalless draw, but the Valiants are seen as favourites to win the match this time out. A man to watch in the home team will be former Wigan Athletic winger Gavin Massey, ... Read More...

Barnsley

After outplaying Torquay and Yeovil in the last two warm-up games, Plymouth will look to make a flying start to the season when they face Barnsley on Saturday. The Pilgrims looked sharp in front of goal in pre-season, and it is no wonder the bookies see them as favourites to win the opener. A man to watch in the home side will be Scotland attacker Ryan Hardie, who scored 16 ... Read More...

Shrewsbury

Morecambe play host to Shrewsbury at their Mazuma Stadium on day 1 of the new League One campaign. Morecambe failed to find the net in the previous two warm-up games against Middlesbrough (0-3) and Carlisle (0-0), and we predict that they will struggle in front of goal in the season opener as well. A man to keep an eye on in the home team will be Cole Stockton, who scored 23... Read More...

Exeter

LNER stadium will host Saturday’s League One opener between Lincoln and Exeter, the two teams who were beaten by Blackburn and Torquay respectively in their last test matches. Lincoln were struggling in front of goal in pre-season, and it is no wonder the odds for away win have been dropping.
