League Two Game Week 23 Predictions and Tips

The League Two Boxing Day schedule has been affected by COVID-19 cases, although we’re hopeful that a number of games will go ahead. Forest Green sit top of the table although the league leaders are once again without a match. It means that the chasing pack have the chance to close the gap and press their own promotion claims.

Carlisle United 13:00 Rochdale

Rochdale are a difficult team to predict, with Robbie Stockdale’s team sitting fourteenth in the table. The Lancashire side are certainly full of goals, with Dale landing a 3-0 win over Newport County. Carlisle will look to build on a 2-0 victory at Stevenage and they also played well when previously losing 1-0 at Mansfield. We’ll go for both teams to find the net.

Colchester United 15:00 Leyton Orient

The O’s lost at Prenton Park last week although the London side were low on numbers. Manager Kenny Jackett will hope to get players back and they should outclass a Colchester side who could get sucked into a relegation scrap. The U’s failed to score against Bradford and Walsall which makes them vulnerable.

Mansfield Town 15:00 Hartlepool United

Mansfield Town are enjoying an amazing renaissance which has seen the Stags climb several places in the table. The Midlands side have won nine of their past ten matches. Hartlepool have lost eight of their ten away games and form has suffered since Dave Challinor left for Stockport. It would be a surprise if the north-east side were able to get anything at Field Mill and we’ll back the home win. This could be a good time to learn more about other bets such as the WhatAcca.com corner tips alternative betting option.

Oldham Athletic 15:00 Scunthorpe United

It’s tough being an Oldham Athletic supporter right now. Selim Benachour has seen the Latics narrowly lose at home to Tranmere before a crazy comeback against Forest Green. There are clearly goals in the team and perhaps they’ll edge out a Scunthorpe team who are the only team who sit below them in the table.

Port Vale 15:00 Salford City

Salford City were the pre-season favourites to win League Two. Although the north-west side sit mid-table and don’t look like promotion candidates just yet. Gary Bowyer’s side head to Vale Park to face opponents who are just outside the automatic promotion spots. However, Darrell Clarke’s side only have a 50% win ratio at home and we’re backing both teams to find the net.

Tranmere Rovers 15:00 Barrow

Barrow have been involved in a number of low-scoring games recently. With Mark Cooper’s side having landed a 2-0 FA Cup win over Ipswich after previously beating an in-form Swindon team. They might come up against a brick wall when clashing with Tranmere Rovers considering the Wirral side have been landing 1-0 victories like they are going out of fashion.

We’re likely to put some League Two selections in our Boxing Day accumulator bet. There are going to be some big games and the biggest fancy is the low-scoring encounter at Prenton Park. The beauty of a League Two football acca is that the odds all multiply together to mean you get a more profitable return.
