| BY Tony Incenzo

IT IS tight at the business end approaching another enthralling weekend of EFL League Two action.

An exciting promotion race is unfolding whereby merely four points span 1st down to 7th place in the table. This scenario has prompted plenty of League Two betting activity.

Here are the upcoming pairings I am anticipating most alongside considered score predictions to guide your football betting…

Cheltenham Town v Walsall

Kick-off: 12.30pm
Rankings: 22nd versus 1st

Cheltenham Town Preview

A significant improvement since Steve Cotterill returned to the managerial hot seat on 30th September.

He has picked up seven points from three EFL encounters to move Cheltenham two points clear of the dreaded dotted relegation line.

Walsall Preview

Enjoying a one point cushion in pole position despite three League and Cup games without winning.

Their 2-1 home reverse against Barrow last time out terminated an eight match unbeaten EFL streak incorporating six maximum pointers.

Score prediction: Apprehensive 1-1.

Swindon Town v Colchester United

Kick-off: 3pm
Rankings: 2nd versus 14th

Swindon Town Preview

One point behind Walsall. Ian Holloway’s men missed the chance to go top on Tuesday evening being held 2-2 by visitors Notts County. That followed a 4-0 beating at Accrington Stanley.

Nevertheless, Swindon marksman Aaron Drinan is the division’s leading scorer on 10 goals.

Colchester United Preview

Four straight wins across all competitions scoring 13 times. Away stats are symmetrical in League Two combat – Won 2, Drawn 2, Lost 2, Goals For 8, Goals Against 8.

Score prediction: Holloway hallelujah 3-1.

Bromley v Milton Keynes Dons

Kick-off: 3pm
Rankings: 13th versus 3rd

Bromley Preview

Tumbling dramatically to mid-table reflecting only one win amid eight League and Cup outings. Still unbeaten on home soil in the EFL although four of those six games were draws.

Milton Keynes Dons Preview

Starting to live up to widescale billing as pre-season promotion favourites. Presently achieving four consecutive EFL wins to ascend into the automatic promotion rungs.

Also 26 goals scored mean the Dons are foremost scorers in this division. Undefeated on the road too in League affairs mustering four victories and two draws.

Score prediction: Dons delight 4-2.

Crewe Alexandra v Grimsby Town

Kick-off: 3pm
Rankings: 11th versus 4th

Crewe Alexandra Preview

Four defeats among six EFL matches leave Crewe three points short of Play-Off discussions.

Alex boss Lee Bell said: “My players are low on confidence and need to take games by the scruff of the neck. We must get the bit between our teeth again.”

Grimsby Town Preview

Outside the automatic promotion zone on goal difference. Three wins in four EFL engagements.

But they might be casting one eye on next Tuesday’s home Carabao Cup Fourth Round tie featuring Premier League opponents Brentford.

Score prediction: Barren 0-0.

A big game inside the Play-Off region. Gills have slipped from title contenders amassing four defeats within five winless League and Cup matches. Assistant boss Richard Dobson continues in caretaker charge while Gareth Ainsworth recuperates after open-heart surgery.

Full-back Remeao Hutton is available for selection because Gillingham successfully appealed his red card shown during last Saturday’s 1-0 loss at Grimsby Town.

Salford City Preview

Level on points with Saturday’s hosts. Salford’s 1-0 home win over local rivals Oldham Athletic stopped a three match losing EFL spree.

Score prediction: Gills revival 2-1.

Tranmere Rovers v Chesterfield

Kick-off: 3pm
Rankings: 18th versus 6th

Tranmere Rovers Preview

Last Saturday’s surprise 4-1 triumph at Bristol Rovers signified their first victory in eight League games. Just a solitary home EFL win on the board so far though.

Chesterfield Preview

Nicely placed due to a seven match sequence in all competitions which brought one defeat. However, away fortunes are mixed including the massive 6-2 humiliation at Colchester United on 4th October.

Score prediction: Rovers nick it 3-2.
