Competition: League Two
Market: Notts County win
Odds: 3/5 @ 1xBet
Looking to make it three League Two victories on the bounce, Notts County will welcome Accrington Stanley to Meadow Lane.
Starting with the hosts, while Notts County might have been left frustrated last season as they eventually had to settle for a bottom-half finish, some in Stuart Maynard’s camp have their sights set on mounting a genuine play-off charge this time around. Last seen putting in a stellar display as they claimed a 2–1 victory away at Swindon, the Magpies are unbeaten in all of their opening four League Two appearances. Making a real statement last month as they stormed their way to a 4-1 romp at home against Grimsby, the former Southend boss has seen his squad muster back-to-back League Two victories. Finding a recent clinical edge in the final third, it should be noted that Notts County have notched eight goals in just their previous three matchups. Likewise, suffering just a single defeat at Meadow Lane since back on March 23rd, Maynard’s side should be smelling a real opportunity when they return to Nottinghamshire on Saturday afternoon.
As for the visitors, at the heart of a League Two relegation scrap for large spells of last season, Accrington Stanley have opened the new campaign in the midst of a real nightmare. Last seen earlier in the week opening their EFL Trophy adventure with a woeful performance on home soil as they slumped to a 4-1 drumming at the hands of Stockport, the Reds are pencilled in as a potential relegation candidate this time around. Opening proceedings on August 10th with another 4-1 defeat against Doncaster, Saturday’s guests have failed to muster a single victory from any of their first six appearances across all competitions. Watching their EFL Cup campaign come to a thumping end last month as they suffered a 3-0 loss away t Tranmere, Accrington should be bracing themselves for a real challenge here. Likewise, hit with a 3-1 defeat when they travelled to Meadow Lane last season, we are expecting a similar outcome this weekend.
