We have reached the home straight in the Sky Bet League 2 season and with six games remaining for most of the sides the stakes could hardly be higher from here on in. That makes the Easter Monday fixture list incredibly important and hugely competitive.
There are still issues at both ends of the table to solve and we might go some way to solving them on Monday so there is plenty to focus on over the course of the afternoon.
Monday’s fixtures are as follows (All 3pm kick off)
Accrington Stanley v Notts County
Carlisle United v Lincoln City
Chesterfield v Newport County
Coventry City v Yeovil Town
Crawley Town v Swindon Town
Crewe Alexandra v Port Vale
Exeter City v Cheltenham Town
Forest Green Rovers v Colchester United
Luton Town v Mansfield Town
Morecambe v Cambridge United
Stevenage v Barnet
Wycombe Wanderers v Grimsby Town
Big Matches
The big match comes from the Wham Stadium where the leaders and our outright pick Accrington Stanley host Notts County who are in fourth place and desperately trying to hang in the automatic promotion picture. The two pre-season title favourites meet at Kenilworth Road when second placed Luton host out of form Mansfield. Wycombe in third welcome Grimsby to Adams Park.
Best of the Rest
Exeter City will be looking to bounce back from their shock turnover at Lincoln on Saturday when they host Cheltenham Town while Coventry in sixth take on Yeovil. At the other end of the table Barnet head to Stevenage looking to build on Saturday’s win while Chesterfield host Newport County in a match which is almost must win for the home side. There is a local derby of sorts at Gresty Road when Crewe take on Port Vale with both sides eager to win to ease their relegation concerns.

Betting
I was going to take a couple of bets here but the forecast for the day is absolutely atrocious and with this being the second match in four days for most of the league it just doesn’t feel like a day to be going head first into.
The bet I like and will take though comes at Adams Park where Grimsby’s plunge back to non-league is expected to continue. They take on a Wycombe Wanderers side who did their automatic promotion hopes the world of good on Friday and with Notts County away to the leagues a win here would have Wycombe perfectly positioned for go up to League 1. I wouldn’t say this is a penalty kick for the home side but they have enough options in their squad to keep things as refreshed as possible at this time of year and they can see off a Grimsby side who have almost given up for the season.
