Barnsley

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

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.

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.

Oxford United

Pride Park will host the League One opener between Derby County and Oxford United, the two teams who meet for the first time since 1994.

Cheltenham Town will look to make a flying start to their 2022/2023 League One campaign when they welcome Peterborough nited to their Whaddon Park on Saturday.
