Millwall's Lead

Millwall should retain the leadership, although Bristol Rovers won at The Den last year, Bristol City have yet to lose at home, and are capable of holding up Q.P.R. and I am taking them to remain unbeaten at home, Cardiff will do well to get a point from Exeter, Notts County who only lost two goals in their first eight games have lost eleven in their last six games which shows a defensive weakness, however, they should defeat the Orient who also appear to be weak both in attack and defence.

In the Northern Division a change of leadership is possible, as Lincoln meet Doncaster Rovers who also have promotion hopes. I expect the homesters to win, but a surprise might occur here. Gateshead who are equal in points with Lincoln meet Chester. These sides drew last season, but the Tynesiders are a much improved side, und I expect them to win, They are still unbeaten at home.. Hull City should improve their league standing by gaining two points from Rochdale Oldham should retain their home ground unbeaten record and send Accrington back pointless.
