Stockport County will be looking to maintain their excellent start to the League One campaign when they face Blackpool on Matchday 2. Jimmy McNulty's men opened with an impressive 3-1 victory over Plymouth and followed that up with a thrilling 6-3 EFL Trophy win against Everton U21. The Hatters have scored 2.10 goals per game across their last 10 matches, highlighting their attacking potential. Jamaica forward Malik Mothersille is pushing for a starting role after scoring a hat-trick against the Toffees reserve team.
Blackpool, meanwhile, began their league campaign with a 1-1 draw against Wycombe. The Seasiders have been in excellent overall form, winning seven of their last 10 matches and keeping six clean sheets during that run. Jordan Brown picked up a knock at the weekend, with Albie Morgan likely to replace him.
As Stockport have won all four previous H2H meetings and scored at least twice in three of them, we are tempted to place our bets on Home Win. Additionally, Stockport Over 1.5 and Over 1.5 goals markets seem interesting (three of the four H2H clashes produced at least two goals, while Stockport average 3.50 total goals per game).
This League 1 match will be played on Saturday 22 August 2026 at 15:00.
