Louie Truman has his League Two betting predictions, along with League Two Betting Odds and some League Two betting bonuses for this weekend's fixtures.

CHESTERFIELD VS BROMLEY

Both sides have had a great start to the current campaign. Chesterfield are just inside the play-off places, and Bromley are five points clear at the top. The Ravens have won their last five and come into this fixture on the back of a 2-0 away win against Tranmere.

Betting Tip: Both Teams To Score at 7/10 with BetMGM

TRANMERE VS WALSALL

Tranmere are 17th in the table. Andy Crosby’s side have managed two wins in their last five, but come into this fixture on the back of a 2-0 home loss against league leaders Bromley; Michael Cheek scored a brace. Walsall have spent the majority of the season in the top spot, but they’ve lost their last two, dropping to third.

Betting Tip: Under 2.5 Goals – 8/11 - Spreadex

ACCRINGTON VS MK DONS

Accrington Stanley have been in great form recently, winning their last three against Barrow, Harrogate and Notts County. MK Dons had a great summer transfer window, signing key players. Dons have been good so far, they’re currently 5th, and they’ll be looking to secure important points in their race for promotion.

Betting Tip: Accrington Win/Draw – 7/10 – Betway

BRISTOL ROVERS VS COLCHESTER

Bristol Rovers are just three places above the relegation zone. Despite Rovers being in disappointing form recently, they come into this fixture on the back of an impressive 3-0 away win against Shrewsbury; Fabrizio Cavegn scored a hat-trick. Colchester are just two places outside the play-off places, so they’ll be looking to secure important points.

Betting Tip: Draw – 23/10 - Priced Up

CRAWLEY VS NOTTS COUNTY

Crawley have lost their last three league outings, conceding eight goals, which shows the defensive problems they’ve had at the back this season. After a positive start from Notts County, they’ve dropped off in recent outings, picking up only two points from their last four.

Betting Tip: Under 2.5 Goals – 17/20 – QuickBet

CREWE VS BARROW

Crewe are tenth in the table; they’ve secured four points from their last two. However, Lee Bell’s side has struggled at the back; they haven’t kept a clean sheet in ten matches. Barrow also comes into this fixture without a clean sheet in their last 11 outings.

Betting Tip: Both Teams To Score – 8/11 – BetMGM

FLEETWOOD vs CAMBRIDGE

Pete Wild’s Fleetwood are 13th in the table and come into this fixture, winless in their last five in all competitions. The Cod Army lost 3-1 against Doncaster last time out in the EFL Trophy. Cambridge are just inside the play-offs, and they’ve won their last two against Chesterfield and Walsall.

Barnet are just one place above Grimsby in the table, and the Bees have also won their last two against Bristol Rovers and Crawley.

Betting Tip: Over 2.5 Goals – 9/10 - Priced Up

OLDHAM vs CHELTENHAM

Oldham are 15th in the table, and the Latics have secured nine points from their last five. Cheltenham are just five places above the relegation zone, and they’ll be aiming to build on their recent 3-0 home win against Crawley. The head-to-head record between the two sides is close, but Oldham got the better of the Robins last time they met, winning 3-0.

Betting Tip – Oldham Win – 7/10 – Spreadex

SHREWSBURY vs HARROGATE

After relegation from League One, the Shrews have struggled so far in Division Two.

Betting Tip: Under 2.5 Goals – 8/13 – BetMGM

SWINDON vs SALFORD

Both Swindon and Salford will be aiming for promotion this season. Swindon are currently second in the table, whilst Salford are fourth. Both teams are in excellent form, winning four of their last five, so they’ll be looking to secure important points in the race for promotion. Aaron Drinan has 13 league goals to his name this season, and he’s managed three in his last three league outings.
