Prediction: 1-2
Hartlepool
Rochdale and Hartlepool square off against each other at Spotland Stadium on day 23 of the new League Two campaign. The Dale do not seem to be at the top of their game, with the team losing each of their last three league fixtures, and they must be low on confidence ahead of the Boxing day showdown. All Rodney, Malley, Sinclair, and Seriki are pushing for a start as Rochdale failed to impress in a 4-1 loss to Harrogate.
Meanwhile, the Pools put an end to their three-game losing run thanks to a 2-0 win over Crawley Town, with the triumph giving them a confidence boost. The visitors are eager to escape the danger zone, and we predict that they will take advantage of the Dale’s current form. As for the away team, boss Keith Curle is unlikely to make changes to the starting XI that faced the Red Devils.
