Carlisle

Colchester play host to Carlisle at their Colchester Community Stadium in what is expected to be a close League Two encounter. The U’s aim to make amends for a 3-2 loss to Northampton, and they are surely capable of matching Carlisle in front of home fans. A man to watch in the home team will be experienced forward Freddy Sears, who opened his goal-scoring account at the w ... Read More...

Gillingham

Gillingham

Holker Street will host Saturday’s League One game between Barrow and Bradford City. The Bluebirds did well to beat Stockport County on the road in their opener, with summer signing Ben Whitfield opening his goal-scoring account. Barrow aim to give fans yet another reason for celebration, and we are positive that they will adopt yet another attack-minded approach.

Hartlepool

Hartlepool

Buoyed by a 2-0 win over Solihull Moors, Walsall will look to make a flying start to the new League Two season when they face Hartlepool on Saturday. The Saddlers finished the last campaign in 16th place, and, no doubt, they are eyeing a top-table finish this time out. Since the club chiefs have been very active in the summer transfer window, we believe that punters from all ... Read More...

Stevenage

Stevenage

Tranmere and Stevenage go head to head at Prenton Park on day 1 of the 2022/2023 League Two campaign. Tranmere missed out on a spot in the playoffs last term, with the team finishing the process only two points behind top seven. The Super Whites are once again eyeing a top-seven finish, and they are likely to go all guns blazing at Stevenage in their opener.

Newport County

Saturday’s season opener at Gander Green Lane pits together Sutton and Newport County, the two teams who finished the last League Two campaign in the opposite halves of the table. Sutton were more than unfortunate not to book a place in the playoffs, and, no doubt, they will give 100% to secure a top-seven finish this time out. It has to be noted that the club chiefs have ...

Barrow

Stockport County will look to make a flying start to the new League two campaign when they host Barrow to their Edgeley Park on Saturday. Stockport impressed in pre-season, with the team beating all Nuneaton, Chorley and Altrincham, while playing out a 2-2 draw with Bolton. The newcomers are likely to leave their hearts on the field, and seeing that they are a real force to ... Read More...

Mansfield

All eyes will be on Peninsula Stadium when Salford City and Mansfield Town square off against each other in the opening match of the season. The Lions defeated Barrow 1-0 in their last warm-up game, meaning that they are high on spirits ahead of Saturday’s clash. However, home win should not be considered as several first-team regulars, including important attacker Ian Hen ... Read More...

Rochdale and Crewe square off against each other at Spotland Stadium in what is expected to be a close League Two game. Rochdale’s pre-season was a mixed bag, with the team beating all Chester, Darlington, and Scunthorpe, while losing to both Port Vale and Burnley.

Colchester

After suffering a 2-0 loss to Cheltenham in their last warm-up game, Northampton Town will look to give fans some cheer when they kick off the new League Two campaign with a home match against Colchester United. The Cobblers were anything but impressive in pre-season, but they are still seen as hot favourites to win the season opener.

Grimsby

Leyton Orient play host to Grimsby Town at their Brisbane Road in the season opener. Leyton rolled over lower-league side Walthamstow 3-0 in their last warm-up game, meaning that they are high on confidence ahead of the visit of Grimsby. A man to watch in the home team will be Republic of Ireland international Aaron Drinan, who scored 14 goals in the League Two last term. Si ... Read More...

Swindon

EnviroVent Stadium will host Saturday’s League Two opener between Harrogate and Swindon. Harrogate finished the last season in 19th place in the standings, while made it to the playoffs where Port Vale proved to be a big catch for them.

Saturday’s football game at Brunton Park pits together Carlisle United and Crawley Town, the two teams who failed to impress in the 2021/2022 League Two campaign.
