League 2 Predictions Today – Saturday 22nd November 2025

A SIGNIFICANT managerial change has impacted on the build up to another busy weekend of EFL League 2 combat.

Meanwhile, the incredibly tight promotion race sees five points spanning 1st down to 10th in the table. Accordingly, League Two betting activity is proving very popular.

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

Harrogate Town v Walsall

• Kick-off: 12.30pm
• Rankings: 22nd versus 2nd

Harrogate Town preview – One point above the dreaded dotted relegation line. The Sulphurites halted a dismal sequence of five consecutive EFL defeats in determinedly drawing 1-1 away to Notts County last time out. Yet still in grave danger of losing their League 2 status gained in 2020 via the National League Play-Off Final.

Walsall preview – They’ve have slipped from pole position because of a single win during five EFL matches which incorporated three losses. Presently one point under front runners Swindon Town.

Score prediction: Spoils shared 1-1.

Bromley v Salford City

• Kick-off: 3pm
• Rankings: 5th versus 9th

Bromley preview – Chugging along nicely recording four wins in five League games. A point shy of those automatic promotion rungs. Remaining unbeaten across eight home EFL matches this campaign.

Salford City preview – One point below their imminent hosts. Last Saturday’s 2-0 setback at MK Dons shattered a five game undefeated League and Cup run embracing four victories.

Score prediction: Bromley brilliant 3-2.

Notts County v Colchester United

• Kick-off: 3pm
• Rankings: 4th versus 14th

Notts County preview – Outside the automatic promotion reckoning on goal difference. Four wins amid six unbeaten EFL engagements. Their only home reverse this season came on Saturday 9th August when Salford City edged the 2-1 outcome.

Colchester United preview – Upwardly mobile on four victories in six EFL attempts. I was particularly impressed by the 2-0 success at previous leaders Walsall last Saturday. Colchester’s players arrived in taxis for that game since the designated team coach had a flat tyre.

Score prediction: Rip-roaring 3-3.

Oldham Athletic v Newport County

• Kick-off: 3pm
• Rankings: 15th versus 24th

Oldham Athletic preview – Marking their return to the 92 club by consolidating in mid-table. However, room for improvement as current fortunes show two wins in 10 League and Cup games.

Merely one home 2025/26 EFL victory…1-0 over Bromley on Saturday 13th September. Strangely for a 15th placed side, Oldham boast the division’s tightest defensive rearguard with 12 goals conceded.

Newport County preview – Rock bottom some four points adrift of safety. Newport sacked boss David Hughes after last Saturday’s 1-0 defeat at fellow strugglers Shrewsbury Town.

Hughes won just three out of 16 EFL matches having been appointed less than six months ago on 23rd May. Names in the frame to replace him include Mark Sampson, Michael Flynn, Garry Monk, Steve Bruce and Steve Evans.

Score prediction: Melancholy 0-0.

Swindon Town v Grimsby Town

• Kick-off: 3pm
• Rankings: 1st versus 10th

Swindon Town preview – Ian Holloway’s men moved up to first place following last Saturday 1-1 draw at Fleetwood Town. So they enjoy a one point cushion over second spot reflecting a solitary defeat in their past seven League and Cup affairs.

Swindon red hot marksman Aaron Drinan is the division’s foremost scorer on 10 EFL goals although he sits out the final match of a three game ban.

Grimsby Town preview – A point beneath Play-Off discussions. One win among five EFL fixtures.

Score prediction: Holloway happy 2-1.

Tranmere Rovers v Milton Keynes Dons

• Kick-off: 3pm
• Rankings: 16th versus 3rd

Tranmere Rovers preview – A three match winless EFL streak was overturned courtesy of last Saturday’s 3-2 triumph against visitors Cheltenham Town. It signified Tranmere’s first home League victory beyond Saturday 9th August.

Milton Keynes Dons preview – Two points off the summit. Five wins in seven EFL encounters for the pre-season promotion favourites. Furthermore, Dons are divisional highest scorers racking up 31 goals.

Score prediction: Dons’ delight 3-1.
