Harrogate

Bradford City welcome Harrogate to their Valley Parade in the last game of the year. The Bantams do not seem to be at their sharpest during the festive fixtures, with the team losing each of their last three league matches, but Thursday’s game could be the turning point for Mark Hughes’ charges. There are no fresh injury worries in the home team, but both Oliver and Bank ... Read More...

Carlisle

Carlisle

Crewe Alexandra will be aiming to bounce back from back-to-back losses to Newport County and Stockport County when they face Carlisle United in the League Two round 24. The Railwaymen suffered a dip in form, with the team obviously struggling at the back, and, as a result, the odds for away win have been dropping. Defender Luke Offord is back from suspension, meaning that Ri ... Read More...

Stevenage

Leyton Orient and Stevenage take on each other at Brisbane Road in the closing match of round 23. Leyton are leading the chase for automatic promotion ahead of Tuesday’s clash, but beating the second-place Boro is easier said than done.

Doncaster

Tranmere will look to put an end to their five-match winless run when they take on Doncaster in the League Two round 23. The Super Whites do not seem to be at their sharpest, but a win over the Donny will see them stay in the playoffs race. Jake Burton is widely expected to return to the starting XI after scoring as a substitute in a 2-1 loss to Grimsby.

Crewe

Crewe

Edgeley Park will host Monday’s football game between Stockport County and Crewe Alexandra, the two mid-table sides. Stockport rolled over Hartlepool 5-0 on the road in their last league match, and we are positive that they will stick to their attacking style of play on Boxing Day.
