Carlisle V Northampton
Carlisle 8/13 1st

Home banker in my opinion. Carlisle chasing Doncaster for that automatic promotion spot and could leap frog Doncaster with a win here, strong side winning 15 out of 17 home games and they should make this their 16th.

Doncaster V Oldham
Doncaster 4/6 Lose

Doncaster want to keep that 2nd spot and Oldham are a mess at the moment. Very inconsistant, struggling for fit players and Doncaster will be too strong for Oldham.

Bury V Mansfield
Bury 10/11 NAP 1st

Bury on a bit of a role since the new manager took over winning 3 out of the last 6 games too lift them away from the relegation zone. They face a mansfield team who have won just one out of the last 6 and look doomed for relegation.

Crawley V Aldershot
Aldershot 1/1 1st

Aldershot top of the league, playing excelllent football should be too strong for a Crawley side who have won just 5 away from home all season.

I keep hitting the bar with my footy acca's 4 out of 5 or 5 out of 6 - very fraustrating - hopefully tomorrow will be the day when the following come in!! Prices quoted are with Coral....

Hartlepool v Yeovil - Hartlepool 8/11 - Hartlepool are very strong at home & Yeovil only won 4times away this year

Forest v Brighton - Forest 8/11 - Brighton are strong at home but tend to struggle on the road - Forest should be too strong

Darlington v Morecome - Darlington 4/7 - Darlo cost me a big payout on my Saturday acca but i'm keeping the faith & compensation awaits

Bury v Mansfield - Bury NAP 10/11 - I agree with the above post - Bury look the bet of the day on current form

Peterborough v Chester - Posh NB 1/3 - I know Chester had a good result on Sat (i'm still very bitter) but can't see them getting anything here...

Doncaster v Oldham - Donny 4/6 - Agree with the comments in the above post

Of the others above, i'm not sure about Carlisle - I agree they are very strong at home BUT Northamption are also flying at the moment & I can see this being a draw

Any thoughts on these would be gratefully recieved...

bury are playing well though so mansfield will have to be at their best...

for me mk dons away to accrington looks good at 5-6 - accrington arent in good form and even if they were mk are still much better than them - accrington lost 4-2 away to chesterfield yesterday - mk won there the week before and are in good form overall - also had an extra days rest after playing peterborugh on friday drawing 1-1

mk along with peterborough are a class apart in league 2 with stockport the next best id say - tough game for stockport away to wycombe though tommorrow - should be close

edit - price went soon after i posted - 4-5 now

anyone fancy tranmere? 6/4 away win at bournmeouth
bournemouth are virtually relegated and have lots of injured players+sams voke is out

agreed on mk dons - they look a solid bet

I wouldn't put you off Tranmere - they played on Thursday night which means an extra two days rest which is a plus - my worry would be that Bournmouth are unbeaten in 3 at home & Tranmere are not exactly great on the road (only 5away wins all season i think)

Peterborough Vs Chester - HOME WIN NAP
League two top scorers Peterborough should be too strong at home for Chester.They are in superb form at the moment having gone 14 games without defeat, winning 11 of them.Their home form is strong and reads: 12w 4d 3l scored 41 and conceded 17.They are joint top of league 2 with the Dons who have a better goal differance.Chester's away form hasnt been as bad as their home form but they are still very inconsistant overall.They have only won two of their last 19 games.Can only see a home win here.
Main Bet:HOME WIN @ 2/5 with Tote

Grimsby Vs Brentford - HOME WIN
Grimsby have a good record recently against Brentford winning 6 of their last 9 meetings, winning the last 4.Brentford are poor away from home and have lost their last four away games.Grimsby shot up the table and are even fighting for a promotion place, which you would have bet against when they were struggling down near the bottom of the table.They beat Barnet 4-1 in their last home game, put up a good fight away at Darlington and won lto away at Mansfield.They beat Brentford 1-0 in the reverse fixture this season and i think they can complete the double over them.
Main Bet:HOME WIN @ 11/10 VC Bet

Darlington Vs Morecombe - HOME WIN NB
Darlington are strong at home having won 11, drawn 6 and lost only 2.They dont concede many and score plenty.Morecombe have had a very good season so far but are 7 4 8 away from home.Most of their recent away wins have been against lower teams but lost away at Dag and Red, drew at Grimsby, lost at Bury and lost at Accrington.Darlington are much tougher and i think the home side should be too strong.
Main Bet:HOME WIN @ 8/11 Bet365

Shrewsbury Vs Notts County - HOME WIN
I fancy Shrewsbury to get their first win in 11 games here against a poor Notts County who have only won 2 games on the road.County have doubts over Michael Johnson, Mike Edwards, Stephen Hunt and Ali Gibb.Obviously with the form both teams have been in im only suggesting minimum stakes on the home win.
Main Bet:HOME WIN @ 6/5 betsquare

Millwall Vs Luton - HOME WIN
Millwall will be wanting to stretch that gap that is slowly appearing between them and the drop zone while Luton are now 14 points from safety.They have only won 1 game away from home.I think Millwall will be too good at home for Luton.
Main Bet:HOME WIN @ 9/10 Canbet

Good Luck People Win

Just reading the team news for Crawley V Aldershot and the Shots manager Gary Waddock may opt to make other changes as they have games on Thurs and Sat. This on top of swaping striker Junior Mendes for Rob Elvins plus their top scorer John Grant could be out for the season. Even though Aldershot are by far the best team in the Conf and playing really well, Crawleys home record reads 10-4-3 with 38 for and 19 against. This is by no means a walk in the park for the Shots and the bookies look to have got the price spot on at evens. Very tempting but by no means a banker!

Tranmere nearly at full strength, won their last 2 matches, both at home, and drew away to Swansea, need to win to keep play-off hopes alive.
Bournemouth are missing a few players for this match, and are as good as relegated.

Tranmere appeal to me in all honesty

Lincoln V HEREFORD @ 2.24

Hereford are riding high in League 2 and will be looking to gain all 3 points today to maintain their push for an automatic promotion to League 1. Hereford have a cracking away record of 13-3-3 with 33 F 20 A. Lincoln on the other hand have an indifferent home record of 7-3-9 and 25 F 30 A. Hereford won this fixture 4-1 last season and beat the Imps 3-1 at home earlier in the season. My only concern is that the goals have dried up for the Bulls scoring only 4 in their last 6 games.

Confidence rating 2/3
