We’ve been crunching the numbers ahead of the League Two action this weekend and come up with two singles that could see profit this weekend as well as an accumulator that we think stands a good chance of coming in.
Newport County look like a fantastic bet to secure all three points when they take on Oldham Athletic this weekend. The Exiles currently sit 22nd in League Two, but they have shown a renewed resilience at Rodney Parade as they battle to secure their safety. With 10 wins overall this season and a strong desire to sign off their final home fixture with a victory, Newport will be highly motivated to capitalise on any lapses from the visitors.
Conversely, Oldham Athletic find themselves in 11th place, but their recent away form has been a cause for concern. The Latics have struggled for consistency on the road, managing only eight wins from 22 away fixtures and possessing a goal difference that reflects their defensive vulnerabilities. With Newport aiming to finish their home campaign strongly and Oldham potentially lacking the same level of urgency as they drift in mid-table, backing a determined home victory for the Exiles represents excellent value in this encounter.
Bristol Rovers look like a fantastic bet to secure all three points when they take on Cheltenham Town this weekend. The Gas currently sit 15th in League Two, boasting a respectable home record at the Memorial Stadium with 11 wins from their fixtures in Bristol. They have demonstrated a clinical edge in front of goal throughout the campaign, highlighting their attacking capability whilst maintaining a competitive position in the table.
Conversely, Cheltenham Town find themselves languishing in 17th place, struggling for consistency during what has been a challenging season. The Robins have found victories hard to come by on their travels, having suffered 11 defeats on the road and possessing a goal difference that reflects their defensive struggles, having conceded 71 times in 44 matches. With Bristol Rovers aiming to finish their season strongly in front of their home faithful and Cheltenham struggling for momentum, backing a solid home victory for Rovers represents excellent value in this encounter.
Three potential winners in League Two this weekend
MK Dons
There’s a massive game at the right end of the League Two table this weekend and picking a winner looks to be near impossible. MK Dons are currently second in the league, pushing hard for automatic promotion. They are the division’s highest scorers with 82 goals, showcasing their attacking prowess throughout the season. Their upcoming match against Tranmere Rovers is crucial. A win for the Dons would be a significant statement of intent in the title race, especially with leaders Bromley also in action, and could solidify their position for promotion.
Barnet
That isn’t the only massive game in the promotion fight this weekend, though. Barnet face off against Gillingham on Saturday, with the Bees sitting within touching distance of the playoffs. Neither has been particularly consistent over the full season but Barnet have found their groove recently, with key striker Kabongo Tshimanga contributing significantly. Barnet need to win both of their remaining games to stand a chance of making the top seven, making this Saturday’s clash the first of two cup finals for the north London side.
Swindon Town
Aaron Drinan, the Swindon Town frontman, is sitting on 22 goals for the season and has been the driving force behind their recent resurgence. He’ll be desperate to add to that tally and help his side climb further towards the top spots before the campaign concludes. Swindon come up against a Grimsby side that also have promotion on their minds. It’s a great chance for Drinan to lead the line and continue his impressive scoring streak, sealing a playoff place in the bargain.
Three potential losers in League Two this weekend
Harrogate Town
Harrogate Town find themselves rooted to the bottom of League Two, and this weekend’s clash against mid-table Walsall offers little respite. With the second-worst goal difference in the division and a staggering 66 goals conceded, Harrogate are in a perilous position. A loss here would be a crushing blow to their already slim survival hopes, especially against a Walsall side that, while not challenging for promotion, will be keen to solidify their mid-table standing. The pressure is immense, and another defeat could see them drift further towards non-league football.
Newport County
Newport County are teetering on the brink of the relegation zone, currently sitting 22nd and only out of the bottom two by a single point. The visit of Oldham presents a formidable challenge. Newport have struggled for consistency throughout the season, conceding 74 goals, and face an opponent that has made a big impression following their promotion last term. A loss for Newport could see them plunge into the relegation spots, making this a high-stakes encounter where a defeat would be devastating.
Crawley Town
Crawley Town are another side deeply embroiled in the relegation dogfight, occupying 21st place with just 38 points. They face Accrington Stanley, who are 16th and looking to secure their mid-table position. Crawley’s recent form has been inconsistent, and a home defeat could prove disastrous, allowing direct rivals to gain ground. This fixture is a true six-pointer, and the psychological impact of a loss for Crawley could be immense, leaving them even more vulnerable in the season’s final stretch
