VIEW PREDICTION

Salford

Salford

Barnet will be aiming to make amends for a 2-1 EFL Cup defeat to Cambridge United when they welcome Salford City to the Hive Stadium. The Bees had been on a five-game winless run during pre-season before that loss, but their overall numbers suggest they remain a dangerous attacking side. Barnet have won seven of their last 10 matches, scoring an impressive 2.7 goals per game ... Read More...

VIEW PREDICTION

Colchester

Colchester

The Wham Stadion will host Accrington Stanley and Colchester United in the League Two opener, with both sides looking to bounce back from disappointing EFL Cup results. Accrington suffered a 2-1 defeat to Crewe and head into the league campaign in poor form, having won just one of their last 10 matches. The hosts have also conceded 1.9 goals per game during that run, althoug ... Read More...

Port Vale

Port Vale

After failing to shock Stoke City in the EFL Cup round 1, Oldham will be looking to make a positive start to their League Two campaign when they welcome Port Vale to Boundary Park. The Latics endured a difficult pre-season and were subsequently eliminated from the EFL Cup by Stoke City in round one. They have won only three of their last 10 matches, although their home recor ... Read More...

Rochdale

Rochdale

Newport County will be eager to start their League Two campaign on a positive note when they welcome Rochdale to Rodney Parade. The Exiles were eliminated from the EFL Cup by AFC Wimbledon on penalties and were involved in several high-scoring games during pre-season. Newport have won four of their last 10 matches, while their home record has been particularly encouraging, w ... Read More...

Salford

Salford

Promotion to League One will be on the line when Notts County and Salford City meet in the League Two playoff final at Wembley Stadium. As Salford have been in a better form than Notts County, we predict a 1-0 away win. Notts County booked their place in the final thanks to a disciplined defensive performance against Chesterfield in the semifinals, but they could be without ... Read More...

Chesterfield

Chesterfield

Notts County will look to defend their slim lead when they host Chesterfield in the second leg of the League Two playoff semi-finals. As Notts County are a real force to be reckoned with at home, we predict a 2-1 home win. The Magpies earned a valuable 1-0 win in the first meeting and are expected to stick with the same starting XI after a disciplined away performance. Notts ... Read More...

Grimsby

A place in the League Two playoff final will be on the line when Salford City host Grimsby in the return leg at the Peninsula Stadium. Salford carry a narrow 2-1 advantage from the first meeting and head into the clash in strong form, winning six of their last 10 matches while averaging 2.0 points per game. The Lions have been particularly impressive at home, recording four ... Read More...

Notts County

Notts County

Chesterfield and Notts County lock horns in a highly-anticipated League Two playoff semi-final first leg, with both sides arriving in strong attacking form and separated by fine margins. As Chesterfield are a real force to be reckoned with at home, we predict a 2-1 win. Paul Cook's troops head into the tie after a 2-1 win over Swindon, extending an excellent run of form that ...

VIEW PREDICTION

Salford

Salford

Blundell Park will host a tense League Two playoff semi-final first leg as Grimsby Town take on Salford City, with both sides arriving in strong late-season form. As the Lions are not regarded as good travellers, our prediction leans toward a 1-0 home win. Grimsby finished the regular campaign with a 1-1 draw against Tranmere and remain unbeaten in seven of their last 10 mat ... Read More...

VIEW PREDICTION

Grimsby

Grimsby

Tranmere will be desperate to avoid relegation when they face Grimsby on the last day of the season. Nonetheless, we predict a 2-1 away win as Grimsby have been in much better form of late. Tranmere's form is poor (0.50 PPG), with just 0.60 goals scored per game and a worrying 60% failure to score rate. Defensively they also struggle, conceding 1.60 per match, and their home ...

VIEW PREDICTION

Chesterfield

Chesterfield

Swindon Town enter the final-round playoff battle on shaky ground after a heavy 4-0 defeat to Grimsby Town, but their season-long numbers still show attacking intent. Anyhow, we predict a 1-0 away win as Chesterfield proved their worth in a 2-0 win over Crewe. The Robins average 1.20 goals scored per game and 2.80 total goals per match, with BTTS landing in 60% of their last ... Read More...

Accrington

Accrington

Oldham Athletic head into the final round on a damaging run of four straight defeats, having seen their playoff hopes collapse late in the season. Despite averaging 1.70 goals scored per game, their defensive record has let them down, conceding 1.30 on average across the last 10 matches. At Latins are stronger on home soil (50% win rate, 2.25 total goals per game), but the a ... Read More...
