Saturday's League Two predictions including AFC Wimbledon vs. Wrexham

Sports Mole provides score predictions and previews for all of today's League Two fixtures, including AFC Wimbledon vs. Wrexham.

AFC Wimbledon host their first League Two game at the Cherry Red Records Stadium this season when they take on newly-promoted Wrexham on Saturday afternoon.

The hosts picked up a point away at Grimsby Town on the opening day of the season, while the visitors started their campaign with a defeat at home against MK Dons.

We say: AFC Wimbledon 1-2 Wrexham


AFC Wimbledon put in a spirited performance when they managed to defeat Championship promotion hopefuls Coventry on Wednesday night, which should give them confidence heading into a tough game.

However, despite their opening day defeat, Wrexham should have enough quality to get their first league win on the board.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 2.5 goals.

Barrow vs. Sutton (Saturday, 3.00pm)

After both sides began the 2023-24 League Two season with a victory, Barrow welcome Sutton United to Holker Street on Saturday for matchday two of the campaign.

The Bluebirds managed to beat Tranmere Rovers last time out, while the U's enjoyed a comprehensive victory over Notts County.

We say: Barrow 1-0 Sutton United


Based on last season's standings, the two teams should be evenly-matched as only four points separated them in the table.

However, Sutton only managed to win four games away from home last season, and combined with Barrow's impressive home form last term, we are inclined to side with a narrow home victory.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 2.5 goals.

Bradford vs. Colchester (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Bradford City are in action at the University of Bradford Stadium for the first time this season when they take on Colchester United in League Two this Saturday afternoon.

The hosts got off to a disappointing start to the campaign, losing away at Crawley Town, with the visitors yet to play a league game, after their opening match against Swindon Town was called off.

We say: Bradford City 1-0 Colchester United


Bradford City finished far higher than Colchester United in League Two last season, and while they did not put in a very good performance on the opening day, they should have enough to get their first win on the board this weekend.

Colchester United put up a good fight away against Cardiff in midweek, which indicates they could be an improved side this season, but they are unlikely to take anything from this Saturday's game.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Gillingham vs. Accrington (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Gillingham and Accrington Stanley will be eager to continue their winning starts to the 2023-24 League Two season when they lock horns at Priestfield Stadium on Saturday.

The Gills managed to secure a narrow victory away at Stockpot to commence their campaign, while Accrington eased to an opening-day victory against Newport County.

We say: Gillingham 2-0 Accrington Stanley


Gillingham will be riding high after back-to-back victories against Stockport and Southampton, and combined with Accrington's poor away form last term, we are siding with a home win here.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 2.5 goals.

Harrogate vs. Forest Green (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Harrogate Town will seek to continue their winning start to the new League Two season when they host Forest Green Rovers at Wetherby Road.

The hosts emerged victorious against Doncaster Rovers last weekend, while the visitors' return to the fourth tier got off to a miserable start against Salford City.

We say: Harrogate Town 1-1 Forest Green Rovers


Forest Green have the advantage in terms of the head-to-head record against Harrogate, winning three of their four meetings.

However, the sides have started the season in contrasting form, so we think there will be very little to split the sides come Saturday.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 2.5 goals.

Mansfield vs. Morecambe (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Mansfield Town will attempt to record their first win of the 2023-24 League Two campaign when they host Morecambe at Field Mill on Saturday afternoon.

The hosts were left frustrated in their opening-day draw with Crewe Alexandra, while the visitors left it late to beat Walsall.

We say: Mansfield Town 1-1 Morecambe


This is a difficult match to call, as we believe there is not much difference between the sides in terms of quality.

Four of the last five meetings between the sides across all competitions have resulted in draws, so we think the teams will share the spoils this weekend.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 2.5 goals.

MK Dons vs. Tranmere (Saturday, 3.00pm)

MK Dons will be looking to make it two wins on the bounce at the start of the League Two season when they host Tranmere Rovers at Stadium MK on Saturday afternoon.

The hosts kicked off their campaign with a victory away against Wrexham last weekend, but the visitors did not get off to the best of starts, losing 2-1 at home to Barrow.

We say: MK Dons 2-1 Tranmere Rovers


MK Dons were clinical on the front foot against Wrexham on the opening day, and we expect them to make it two wins from two at the start of their first campaign back in the fourth tier.

Tranmere Rovers showed they have got real quality during their victory against Barnsley on Tuesday night, but we think they will come up just short away at one of the promotion favourites.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Newport vs. Doncaster (Saturday, 3.00pm)

A pair of sides coming off victories in the EFL Cup earlier this week will seek their first points of the new League Two campaign as Newport County host Doncaster Rovers at Rodney Parade on Saturday.

In the opening match of the domestic season, the Exiles were beaten 3-0 by Accrington Stanley, while Doncaster conceded a second-half penalty, losing 1-0 at home to Harrogate Town.

We say: Newport County 1-2 Doncaster Rovers


Although Rovers lost their opener, we expect their attacking depth and proven quality will be enough to earn a first domestic triumph in 2023-24 against a Newport side who do not appear to have an abundance of quality.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Notts County vs. Grimsby Town (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Notts County face off against Grimsby Town at Meadow Lane on Saturday afternoon, in the second round of League Two fixtures.

The hosts are yet to get a point on the board, losing away at Sutton United on the opening day, while the visitors drew at home against AFC Wimbledon in their first match.

We say: Notts County 1-0 Grimsby Town


Notts County should be eager to kickstart their campaign with a victory in front of their own fans this weekend, in what is the first EFL match at Meadow Lane since 2019, and we think they will be able to get the job done.

Although it is still very early days, Grimsby Town have failed to score so far this season, putting in two sub-par performances, which they cannot afford to do against a side of the Magpies' quality.

Our tipster partners are predicting a home win.

Salford City vs. Crawley (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Salford City will be bidding to make it three wins from their three matches at the start of the 2023-24 campaign when they host Crawley Town in League Two on Saturday afternoon.

Neil Wood's side recorded a 2-0 victory over Forest Green Rovers in their league opener last weekend, while Crawley started their season with a 1-0 success over Bradford City.

We say: Salford City 2-0 Crawley Town


Salford will know that their home form needs to improve this season if they are to be serious contenders for promotion, and we are backing Wood's side to triumph here. Crawley were so disappointing on their travels last season, and it is tough to back them to pick up a positive result on Saturday.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.

Swindon Town welcome Crewe Alexandra to The County Ground for their first League Two home fixture of the new season on Saturday.

The two teams locked horns in the fourth tier just four months ago, with the Railwaymen coming out on top with a 2-1 home victory.

We say: Swindon Town 1-1 Crewe Alexandra


Both Swindon and Crewe will fancy their chances of claiming their first League Two win of the new season on Saturday, but with little to separate these two sides, we can see the spoils being shared on this occasion.

Walsall and Stockport County will go in search of their first League Two points in 2023-24 when they lock horns at Bescot Stadium on Saturday afternoon.

Both sides lost on the opening weekend of the new campaign, while neither team managed to progress in the EFL Cup in midweek.

We say: Walsall 1-1 Stockport County

Given that both teams are yet to taste victory this season, we can see Walsall and Stockport County serving up a tense and cagey stalemate on Saturday.
