League Two stats and tips
Grimsby v Walsall - Win / Draw / Win - home win
There's nothing wrong with keeping it simple, and the members of KickOff, it could be argued, are doing exactly that by backing the home win as Grimsby Town and Walsall clash in League Two on Wednesday. In total 7 have saved that bet on the site, with best odds of 1.95 proving to be enticing enough for many.
Fleetwood v Barrow - Both Teams To Score - yes
Fans at Highbury Stadium may be fully expecting plenty goalmouth action on Saturday, and with good reason if Fleetwood Town's past record is to be continued. Both teams have scored in 22 of their 31 League Two matches this season, more than any side in the competition.
Swindon v Crewe - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - over
If you're not busy on Saturday lunch time, then the clash between Swindon Town and Crewe Alexandra could be worth checking out. I. Holloway's team lead League Two in most matches with at least 3 goals scored so far this season. 21 of their League Two games have already gone that way. With form like that, surely only an entirely negative game plan from L. Bell's men could ruin the spectacle.
Accrington v Shrewsbury - Double Chance - home win or draw
Shrewsbury Town have consistently struggled against Accrington Stanley in the league in recent years. The two clubs have met on 8 occasions since 2020, and Accrington Stanley have been unbeaten in them all. Saturday's game at Wham Stadium could be a tricky one for M. Appleton & co.
Bristol R v Grimsby - Half Time / Full Time - away+away
Bristol Rovers will be looking to avoid adding to the 12 times they have already been behind in at both the break and the final whistle this season when they square off against Grimsby Town on Saturday. D. Clarke's team already top the rest of League Two in that department, and won't want to make it any worse. Opposing boss D. Artell will be licking his lips, however.
Cheltenham v Salford - Both Teams To Score & Result - away
Cheltenham Town will be concerned that 1 goal probably won't be enough to claim victory over Salford City on Saturday afternoon. K. Robinson's side have the best record in League Two when it comes to winning games in which both teams are on the scoresheet (11 of their 30 games), so focusing on defence might be the best route to victory for S. Cotterill and his Cheltenham Town men at Jonny-Rocks Stadium.
Colchester v Barnet - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under
Low scoring matches aren't always entirely dull, but fans of Colchester United have had too many chances to test that theory this campaign. 22 of their side's fixtures in League Two have finished with under 2.5 goals so far - the most in the competition. Will D. Brennan and his Barnet team be capable of adding some goals into this fixture on Saturday? Or will it be same old same old?
Crawley v Chesterfield - Both Teams To Score & Result - draw
Checkatrade.com Stadium is the venue as Chesterfield and Crawley Town go head-to-head on Saturday afternoon, in what might just be a tight affair. P. Cook's side have the most BTTS + draws of any club in the division - 12 in 32 games. An extension of that record can be backed at 4.33.
Gillingham v Oldham - Half Time / Full Time - draw+draw
It might not be a record they're particularly enamoured with, but Oldham Athletic currently lead all opposition in League Two when it comes to matches drawn at both the break and the final whistle this season, with their tally now at 8 in 30 matches. They will put that unwanted consistency to the test versus Gillingham at Priestfield Stadium on Saturday, in a clash that could see yet another tie.
Harrogate v Bromley - Correct Score - 0-2
A sense of déjà vu often sets in when Harrogate Town and Bromley meet in the League Two. 0-2 to Harrogate Town has been the outcome in each of their last 3 matches. Surely another 0-2 can't be in the offing this Saturday at Cng Stadium, can it?
Newport v Cambridge - Double Chance - away win or draw
Newport County have consistently struggled against Cambridge United in the League Two in recent years. The two clubs have clashed on 5 occasions since 2019, and Cambridge United have been unbeaten in them all. Saturday's game at Rodney Parade could be a tricky one for D. Hughes & co.
Walsall v MK Dons - Half Time / Full Time - away+away
M. Sadler won't be looking forward to going up against MK Dons in League Two on Monday. P. Warne's side have been winning at HT and gone on to win at FT more often than any other team in the League Two this term - 14 times in total. That stat suggests there's every chance of it being a tough night for Walsall, and that backing MK Dons in the halftime fulltime market could be a strong bet at odds of 4.00.
Accrington v Barnet - Over / Under 4.5 Goals - under
Common or not, every football fan loves to see a match in which 5 goals or more are scored, but Barnet's dedicated fans have now been waiting 24 games to watch their club deliver one. That’s too long by anyone’s count. Could the streak come to an end on Saturday afternoon, as they face J. Doolan's Accrington Stanley at Wham Stadium? With odds of 1.10 on there being 4 goals or fewer being scored, the bookmakers clearly have their doubts.
Salford v Shrewsbury - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - over
We may have a high-scoring affair on our hands when Salford City and Shrewsbury Town meet on Sunday afternoon in League Two. K. Robinson and M. Appleton's sides have shown they know their way to goal, and KO's community of tipsters believe they will again at Moor Lane. 5 of them have saved a bet there to be 3 goals or more during the 90 mins. 1.75 is the highest price in our betslip for this bet, and our tipsters won't be the only ones taking it at that price.
Barrow v Gillingham - Both Teams To Score & Result -
If you like backing goals and picking a victor, then the upcoming match between Barrow and Gillingham could be the one for you. A. Whing's side have lost 10 games this term in which both clubs have got on the scoresheet. That's the most in League Two.
Bromley v Oldham - Win / Draw / Win - home win
Our buzzing hive of football tipsters clearly has a lot of optimism around A. Woodman and his chances of delivering victory for Bromley on Sunday afternoon. 19 have predicted him to guide his lads to beat Oldham Athletic. Here's hoping that their faith in him isn't misplaced.
Chesterfield v Colchester - Double Chance - away win or draw
Chesterfield have consistently struggled against Colchester United in the league in recent years. The two clubs have met on 7 occasions since 2015, and Colchester United have gone unbeaten in them all. Saturday's game at Proact Stadium could be another hard one for P. Cook & co.
Newport v Tranmere - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - over
Entertainment is the name of the game, and there's reason to expect plenty of it when Newport County and Tranmere Rovers clash on Sunday afternoon in League Two. D. Hughes and A. Crosby's squads are more than talented enough to score in this fixture, and KickOff's well-informed bettors fancy them to demonstrate that at Rodney Parade. 7 of them are tipping there to be at least 3 goals in total. 1.85 is the most-enticing price in our betslip for that suggestion, and our tipsters won't be the only ones taking it at that price.
Walsall v Fleetwood - Over / Under 1.5 Goals - under
There are some supporters who enjoy the tactical battle of a low-scoring fixture, and they should probably keep an eye on Walsall v Fleetwood Town. Each of Fleetwood Town's last 3 League Two outings has had under 1.5 goals, and that streak looks set to continue.
Barrow v Bristol R - Both Teams To Score - yes
Barrow supporters have come to expect drama at each end when their side plays in League Two, with both teams having found the net in all of their last 5 games. Bristol Rovers on Sunday afternoon could be another ding-dong battle.
Cambridge v Grimsby - Win / Draw / Win - home win
A simple tally suggests our tipsters have a great deal of belief in N. Harris and his chances of delivering a win for Cambridge United on Sunday afternoon. 22 have bet on him to propel his lads to beat Grimsby Town. It's all eyes on the home boss now to see if he can indeed deliver.
Oldham v Notts C - Double Chance - home win or draw
M. Mellon and his Oldham Athletic side have gained a handy way of getting something from pretty much every League Two match they play. They're unbeaten in 5 in League Two now, so M. Paterson and his Notts County side will need to be on top of their game if they're to stand any chance at Boundary Park on Saturday.
Barrow v Oldham - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under
Neutrals might want to stay away from this Tuesday's clash between Barrow and Oldham Athletic, that's if KickOff's members are correct. They aren't expecting lots of goalmouth action, with 5 of them backing this one to finish with under 2.5 total goals scored.
Colchester v Accrington - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under
Colchester United and Accrington Stanley have played out a number of tight clashes in recent years. With each of their last 6 League Two matches having under 2.5 goals, the strikers picked by D. Cowley and J. Doolan may be going home disappointed on afternoon.
