16:00
Prediction: 2-0
Rochdale
Gander Green Lane will host Saturday’s League Two game between Sutton and Rochdale, the two bottom-table sides. Sutton aim to make amends for back-to-back losses to Stockport County and Bradford City, and they are likely to go all guns blazing at the Dale. Ben Goodliffe remains on the sidelines with a long-term injury for the home side.
The visitors, on the other hand, aim to make amends for a 1-0 loss to Mansfield, but given their difficulties on the road, we predict that the hosts are going to emerge triumphant in Saturday’s encounter. In their last meeting at the venue Sutton outplayed Rochdale 3-0, and we predict that the history is going to repeat itself. Both Luke Charman and Tahvon Campbell have been struggling with injuries of late, speaking of the away side.

He made his professional debut on the 29th of March, 2014, featuring in Celtic's 1-1 draw against Ross Country in the Scottish Premiership. His time at the Hoops included sporadic first-team appearances and loan spells with teams Oldham Athletic, Cork City, and Walsall. However, he won Celtic's Academy Player of the Year 2014 award and was included in the reputed Irish publication Journal.ie's " 10 most promising young Irish Footballers" article. His search for regular playing time brought O'Connell to Bury, whom he joined in June 2017.

Additionally, the 24-year-old has capped for the Republic of Ireland's under-19 and the under-21 team.

Highlighted Team (Rochdale):
Nicknamed the Dale, Rochdale are a professional English club that compete in the League One (English third tier). Rochdale were founded back in 1907, after World War I, with the team beating Accrington Stanley 6-3 in their first league game 14 years later.
The Dale wear blue shirts with black stripes and blue shorts when playing at home, whilst gray is the dominant colour of their away kit. Spotland Stadium is the club’s home ground, with the venue holding no more than 10,249 spectators. Bury and Oldham Athletic are considered the club’s fiercest rivals, but they have built up rivalries with the likes of Halifax Town, Burnley, Stockport County, Wigan Athletic and Accrington Stanley as well.
Back in 1962 Rochdale made it to the Football League Cup final, with the team facing Norwich City in the title game. The Canaries proved to be a big catch for the Dale, but this is still considered the club’s biggest success. It has to be noted that the Spotland Stadium outfit have three Lancashire Cup titles as well (1948/1949, 1970/1971, 2004/2005).
