Looking at League One we can see that Bristol, Fleetwood and Preston have all made unbeaten starts to the season. Bristol’s new strike force of Aaron Wilbraham and Kieran Agard linked up impressively in their build up play for Bristol’s first goal in their 2-1 away victory at Notts County last weekend and look to be a strike partnership to be reckoned with. Wilbraham has now bagged 4 goals from the first 5 games of the season and looks likely to spearhead the Robins to another victory at Ashton Gate versus an inconsistent Scunthorpe Utd. Fleetwood currently boast a 100% away record and seem to be great value at 9/5 to triumph away at an Oldham side that has conceded 7 goals at home in their last 4 games.

With regard to League Two our main selection lies in the handicap markets, backing Mansfield on any outcome except a loss versus an Exeter side yet to register a win this season, managing just 2 goals in their last 6 games in all competitions. Southend should prove too strong for an Oxford United side with a 100% losing away record so far this season at Roots Hall, having performed well in their 2-2 cup exit on penalties to AFC Wimbledon in midweek.
