League Two Outright Predictions
[wptb id="395159" not found ]Watch Out for Wrexham: BT4Y’s Predictions for an Exciting League 2 Season
Key Stats
– The Comeback Kids: MK Dons, despite a disappointing performance in the 2022/23 season, have a history of bouncing back with two previous promotions and a title win in their last three seasons in League Two.
Perilous Position: Forest Green Rovers’ dramatic fall, relegated with only 27 points and a single win in 2023, making them potential candidates for a second consecutive relegation.
The English Football League Two is about to embark on a thrilling new season, poised to kick-off this August, with a multitude of intriguing storylines to follow. This article provides a detailed preview of the season, and we lay down our predictions, focusing on three primary outright predictions: League Two winner, the Top seven race, and the relegation battle.
The Forerunners and Dark Horses
Wrexham: The Reformed Dragon
The media’s darling this season is undoubtedly Wrexham, who ended their 15-year exile from the Football League with a record-setting promotion from the National League. Achieving the highest point tally ever in a National League season (111), they emerged as champions with 34 victories out of 46 matches, surpassing the previous record of 30 wins.
With high-profile owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney ready to make significant investments in bolstering the squad over the summer, Wrexham are a serious contender for back-to-back promotions. Even if outright odds favouring them at 4/1, it’s vital to remember that League Two is a fiercely competitive division teeming with seasoned teams.
Stockport County: Heartbreak to Redemption
Stockport County are another strong contender, following their narrow miss for promotion to League One last season. Despite finishing a mere four points shy of Northampton Town for the final automatic promotion spot, they suffered a crushing defeat to Carlisle United in the playoff final. Nevertheless, having finished fourth in League Two in their first season back, they will be eyeing another shot at the title next year.
Notts County: A Resilient Challenger
Promoted alongside Wrexham, Notts County, showcased their potential last season, finishing just four points behind Wrexham in the National League. The Magpies might not have stolen the spotlight from Wrexham, but they held their own, especially in the scoring department where they notched up an impressive 117 goals throughout the season. The star of the show, striker Macaulay Langstaff, contributed an astonishing 42 goals, indicating that Notts County could be a real threat in the title race.
[wptb id="395161" not found ]Title Contenders and Outsiders
MK Dons: Primed for a Comeback
Despite their disappointing 2022/23 season in League One, MK Dons shouldn’t be overlooked in the title race. Based on their past performances in League Two and apparent squad superiority, MK Dons have strong potential to bounce back. In their previous three seasons in the fourth tier, the Dons managed two promotions, even clinching the title once. They are priced at 14/1 odds to repeat such a feat in the coming season.
Doncaster Rovers: Looking for Redemption
Meanwhile, Doncaster Rovers, despite a lacklustre 18th place finish last season, could bounce back. They have demonstrated their capacity to succeed in League Two, securing a 3rd-place finish and subsequent promotion twice before. With manager Grant McCann, known for engineering successful campaigns, at the helm, they could defy the odds and secure a top-seven finish.
Forest Green Rovers: Facing the Abyss
Finally, we turn our attention to Forest Green Rovers, a club that appears to be on a precipitous edge. In stark contrast to the competitive MK Dons who came down with 45 points, Forest Green Rovers suffered relegation with just 27 points and a single win in 2023. The upcoming season could potentially see them descend further, possibly facing relegation once again.
