League Two stats and tips
Barrow v Chesterfield - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - over
If you're looking for some proper entertainment on Monday afternoon, then the clash between Barrow and Chesterfield could be worth checking out. D. Maamria's team lead League Two in most matches with at least 3 goals scored so far this season. 24 of their League Two games have already gone that way. With form like that, surely only an entirely negative game plan from P. Cook's men could keep the score down.
Cheltenham v Cambridge - Win / Draw / Win - away win
Top-level football may generally have fewer away wins than home wins, but our wise old group of footy bettors are absolutely expecting one as N. Harris and his Cambridge United side arrive at Jonny-Rocks Stadium on Monday afternoon. 9 of our bettors are tipping that S. Cotterill's Cheltenham Town will be subjected to defeat in front of their own fans. If that one comes in we'll have some very happy punters indeed!
Crawley v Grimsby - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under
Crawley Town have taken part in some low-scoring outings in League Two recently. There have been under 2.5 goals in every one of S. Lindsey's side's last 5 outings and, with D. Artell and his Grimsby Town ahead on Monday afternoon, their attackers would be well advised to put in some more practice in the build-up.
Crewe v Salford - Both Teams To Score - yes
When Crewe Alexandra and Salford City have met in the League Two, goals have generally followed. Both teams have found the net in each of their last 6 matches against one another, so the Alexandra Stadium faithful could be in for another thriller on Monday afternoon.
Fleetwood v Barnet - Win / Draw / Win - away win
The stats may suggest an away win isn't the most common result, but our wise old group of members are definitely expecting one as D. Brennan and his Barnet XI rock up to Highbury Stadium on Monday afternoon. 5 of our tipsters are tipping that P. Wild's Fleetwood Town will suffer defeat in front of their own fans. With decent odds available, it may well be worth doing the same.
Gillingham v Accrington - Double Chance - away win or draw
Following your favourite footy team year after year can be hard going, and Gillingham’s dogged old follows know that only too well right now. Their team, led by G. Ainsworth, is now winless in their previous 7 League Two matches, and the clouds hardly look like parting against Accrington Stanley at Priestfield Stadium on Monday afternoon. Backing opposition boss J. Doolan to add another to that list by inspiring his lads to anything other than a defeat is available at top odds of 1.80.
Harrogate v Bristol R - Half Time / Full Time - home+home
Bristol Rovers will be hoping not to add to the 13 times they have already been behind in at both HT and FT this term when they take on Harrogate Town on Monday. S. Evans's side already top the rest of League Two in that category, and won't want to make the situation any worse. Opposing boss S. Weaver will be licking his lips, however.
Notts C v Newport - Win / Draw / Win - home win
A simple tally suggests our tipsters have a great deal of belief in M. Paterson and his managerial skills, and ability to claim a win for Notts County on Monday afternoon. 24 have backed him to inspire his side to win against Newport County. Here's hoping that their faith in him isn't misplaced.
Oldham v MK Dons - Half Time / Full Time - away+away
M. Mellon won't be relishing the prospect of playing MK Dons in League Two on Monday. P. Warne's side have been ahead at the break and gone on to win at final whistle in more games than any other team in the League Two this term - 19 times in total. That stat suggests there's every chance of it being a tough afternoon for Oldham Athletic, and that backing MK Dons in the HT FT market could be a strong bet at odds of 4.33.
Swindon v Walsall - Double Chance - away win or draw
Luckily for them, it has been quite some time since Walsall’s joyous followers watched their side get beaten in League Two. M. Sadler’s squad is now unbeaten in 5 outings, and he will be telling them that they can extend that run against Swindon Town at County Ground on Monday afternoon. Best value odds of 1.73 are available to back Walsall the double chance market.
Tranmere v Colchester - Win / Draw / Win - away win
Bad form can be tough to shift, but that's what's required of Tranmere Rovers boss P. Wild on Monday. His players face Colchester United having lost each of their last 3 League Two outings.
Bromley v Shrewsbury - Half Time / Full Time - draw+draw
It might not be a record they're all that enamoured with, but Bromley currently lead all opposition in League Two when it comes to matches where they've been drawing at both HT and FT this season, with their tally now at 9 in 41 matches. They will put that unwanted consistency to the test against Shrewsbury Town at Hayes Lane on Tuesday, in a fixture that could see yet another tie.
Bristol R v Crawley - Half Time / Full Time - away+away
Bristol Rovers will be looking to avoid adding to the 13 times they have already lost at both HT and FT this term when they square off against Crawley Town on Saturday. S. Evans's players already lead the rest of League Two in that area, and won't want to make the situation any worse. Opposing boss S. Lindsey , on the other hand, will be feeling very differently.
MK Dons v Bromley - Half Time / Full Time - home+home
A. Woodman won't be too excited about going up against MK Dons in League Two on Saturday. P. Warne's side have been ahead at HT and gone on to win at FT more frequently than any other team in the League Two this term - 19 times in total. That record suggests it may be a long lunch time for Bromley, and that backing MK Dons in the HT FT market could be a great shout at odds of 2.88.
Accrington v Fleetwood - Double Chance - away win or draw
Accrington Stanley have consistently struggled against Fleetwood Town in the league in recent years. The two sides have clashed on 5 occasions since 2022, and Fleetwood Town have been unbeaten in them all. Saturday's game at Wham Stadium could be a really difficult one for J. Doolan & co.
Barnet v Barrow - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - over
If you're not busy on Saturday afternoon, then the clash between Barrow and Barnet could be the one for you. D. Maamria's team lead League Two in most matches with more than 2 goals scored so far this season. 24 of their League Two games have already gone that way. With a record like that, surely only a defensive masterclass from D. Brennan's men could prevent more of the same.
Chesterfield v Tranmere - Both Teams To Score & Result -
If you like backing goals and choosing a winner, then the upcoming fixture between Tranmere Rovers and Chesterfield might well be the one for you. P. Wild's side have lost 13 games this term in which both teams have scored. That's a record in League Two.
Salford v Gillingham - Both Teams To Score & Result - home
Gillingham will be concerned that 1 goal is unlikely to be enough to come out on top against Salford City on Saturday afternoon. K. Robinson's men have the best record in League Two when it comes to conceding yet still claiming victory (13 of their 42 outings), so defence first might be the best course of action for G. Ainsworth and his Gillingham men at Moor Lane.
Shrewsbury v Oldham - Double Chance - home win or draw
Oldham Athletic have found something of a bogey team in Shrewsbury Town in the league in recent years. The two clubs have clashed on 5 occasions since 2016, and Shrewsbury Town have gone unbeaten in them all. Saturday's game at Montgomery Waters Meadow could be a really difficult one for M. Mellon & co.
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.
Cheltenham v Gillingham - Double Chance - home win or draw
Gillingham simply have not been able to find a way past Cheltenham Town in the league in recent years. The two teams have met on 7 occasions since 2012, and Cheltenham Town have remained unbeaten in them all. Tuesday's game at Jonny-Rocks Stadium could be a tricky one for G. Ainsworth & co.
Colchester v Accrington - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under
Low scoring games aren't always entirely dull, but fans of Accrington Stanley have had lots of chances to test that theory this season. 28 of their side's encounters in League Two have finished with under 2.5 goals so far - the most in the competition. Will D. Cowley and his Colchester United team be able to inject spice into this fixture on Tuesday? Or will it be same old same old?
Tranmere v Bristol R - Both Teams To Score & Result -
If you like putting your money on goals and choosing a victor, then the upcoming game between Tranmere Rovers and Bristol Rovers could warrant a closer look. P. Wild's side have lost 13 games this season in which both teams have found the net. That's a record in League Two.
Cambridge v Grimsby - Over / Under 2.5 Goals - under
Neutrals might want to stay away from this Tuesday's encounter between Cambridge United and Grimsby Town, that's if KickOff's members are correct. They aren't predicting lots of goalmouth action, with 8 of them backing this one to end with at most 2 total goals scored.
Cheltenham v Tranmere - Both Teams To Score & Result -
If you like backing goals and picking a winner, then the upcoming clash between Tranmere Rovers and Cheltenham Town could be the one for you. P. Wild's side have lost 13 games this campaign in which both sides have got on the scoresheet. That's the most in League Two.
