Notts County
Match Time & Date:

16:00
Prediction: 3-1
Tranmere
Following a 1-1 draw with Colchester United, Notts County will look to return to winning ways when they take on Tranmere Rovers on Matchday 33. The Magpies are eyeing their ninth home win of the process, but they will have to prove their worth on the field. Defender Rodney McDonald picked up an injury against Colchester, with Robbie Cundy likely to replace him in the starting XI.
The Rovers, on the other hand, are fighting hard to secure the League Two survival. Tranmere Rovers do not seem to be at their sharpest and given their dreadful losing run on the road, we believe that there is a big value in betting on Notts County. To make things even worse for the away team, defender Declan Drysdale should miss Saturday’s game through injury. Connor Wood is widely expected to replace Drysdale in the starting XI.

David McGoldrick scored 14 goals in 31 appearances for the Tractor Boys in the 2013/2014 Championship campaign and that is considered his most successful season. You should have in mind that his Ipswich teammates Daryl Murphy and Stephen Hunt backed David for his first-ever Ireland call-up.
Highlighted Team (Tranmere):
Based in Birkenhead, Merseyside, Tranmere Rovers are a professional club that compete in the League One. Tranmere were founded back in 1884 under the name of Belmont FC, with the football arms of cricket clubs Lyndhurst Wanderers and Belmont coming together. The club recorded their first win later in 1884 as they outclassed Brunswick Rovers 4-0.
Nowadays Tranmere Rovers play their home games at Prenton Park, the venue which can hold up to 15,567 people. The Rovers wear white shirts and blue shorts in home matches, but back in the 19th century orange and red were the dominating colours on their kit.
Tranmere fans see Bolton Wanderers as the club’s main rivals, but they have built a small rivalry with Chester City and Everton as well. The Prenton Park outfit did well to make it to the League Cup final in the 1993/1994 season, but Aston Villa proved to be a big catch for them in the title game.
