Rochdale will be determined to put an end to their three-game losing run in the new League Two campaign when they face Shrewsbury Town on Tuesday evening. The Dale suffered a disappointing 2-0 defeat to Colchester at the weekend, managing only 0.66 xG, and they will need to improve considerably in the final third. Rochdale have nevertheless been much stronger at home recently, winning 50% of their last 10 games at Spotland and averaging 1.50 goals per match. There are no fresh injury worries for the hosts.
Shrewsbury, meanwhile, quickly bounced back from their 3-1 defeat to Barnet by beating Salford City 1-0, with William Boyle scoring the decisive goal. However, the Shrews have struggled badly on the road, failing to win any of their last 10 away matches and scoring just 0.20 goals per game during that period. Defender Sam Stubbs remains sidelined with injury. Rochdale also have the H2H advantage, winning seven of the last 13 meetings.
Rochdale are much stronger at home, while Shrewsbury have a 0% away win rate in their last 10. Therefore, our main prediction leans toward Home Win, alongside Rochdale to Win to Nil and Under 3.5 goals (Shrewsbury average only 1.80 total goals per away game across their last 10).
This League 2 match will be played on Tuesday 1 September 2026 at 19:45.
