Crawley

Northampton Town will look to stay in automatic promotion berth when they host Crawley Town to their Sixfields Stadium on Saturday afternoon. Following four consecutive wins, the Cobblers suffered a heavy 5-2 loss to Swindon in their first game of the year, and, no doubt, they are eager to get back on course in the League Two.

Salford

Salford

Saturday’s football game at Rodney Parade pits together Newport County and Salford City, the two teams who are regarded as good hosts. The Exiles kicked off 2022 with a thrilling 3-3 draw with Walsall, with Dominic Telford scoring a brace. The 25-year-old will be the man to watch in the home team, and he is likely to pose a big threat to the opposition defenders.

Rochdale

Rochdale

Colchester and Rochdale face each other at Colchester Community Stadium in the League Two round 26. The U’s do not seem to be at their sharpest, with the team failing to win the previous four league fixtures. Considering that Colchester failed to impress in a 3-1 loss to Crawley, we are not tempted to put our money on the hosts. The Dale, on the other hand, aim to build on ... Read More...

Bradford City

Brunton Park will host Saturday’s League Two game between Carlisle United and Bradford City. The Cumbrians are eyeing their third consecutive league win, and they are likely to rely on their rock-solid defence. In their last home game in the League Two Carlisle defeated Walsall thanks to Tristan Abrahams’ goal, which is surely giving fans a reason for optimism ahead of t ... Read More...

Exeter

Exeter

The New Lawn will host Tuesday’s League Two game between Forest Green and Exeter. The Green Army aim to build on a 2-0 win over Stevenage, where Jamille Matt extended his brilliant goal-scoring run. The Jamaica international has already netted 14 goals this season, meaning that the opposition defenders should have him at bay. You should bear in mind that the league leaders ... Read More...

Newport County

Walsall and Newport take on each other at Bescot Stadium in a highly-anticipated New Year clash. The Saddlers did well to beat Colchester United in their last league match, but they have not been in action since December 11 due to coronavirus outbreak.

Northampton

Following a goalless draw with Stevenage, Swindon will be aiming to retain their spot in top seven when they take on Northampton in yet another festive fixture. The Robins are eager to put an end to their four-game winless run, but they will have a mountain to climb in the New Year clash. Both Simpson and Williams could sneak into the starting line-up this time out.

Buoyed by a hard-fought 1-0 win over Harrogate, Sutton will look to give fans yet another reason for celebration when they take on Exeter at their Gander Green Lane.

Scunthorpe play host to Carlisle at their Sands Venue Stadium on day 25 of the 2021/2022 League Two campaign. The Iron were not in action in midweek due to the coronavirus outbreak, but they did well to beat Oldham 3-1 on Boxing Day.

Spotland Stadium will host Saturday’s football match between Rochdale and Mansfield Town, the two teams who defeated Newport County and Hartlepool respectively in their last league fixtures.
