A busy week in Sky Bet League 2 comes to an end on Saturday as the final set of three fixtures in eight days is played out up and down the country. This is the last round of matches for two weeks with the FA Cup break next week so all the sides will be looking for three points to take with them.
Saturday fixtures are as follows: (3pm unless stated)
Mansfield Town v Chesterfield (1pm)
Barnet v Grimsby Town
Cambridge United v Stevenage
Carlisle United v Morecambe
Coventry City v Crawley Town
Crewe Alexandra v Luton Town
Exeter City v Accrington Stanley
Forest Green Rovers v Cheltenham Town
Lincoln City v Port Vale
Notts County v Colchester United
Swindon Town v Newport County
Wycombe Wanderers v Yeovil Town
Big Matches
The league leaders Luton Town head to Crewe looking to keep up their lead at the top of the table but the match of the day comes from St James’ Park where Exeter in fourth host Accrington in third place. With a gap appearing between the two Exeter really need to win that. Notts County in second host Colchester United at Meadow Lane. Two more top 10 sides meet at the County Ground as Swindon host Newport County.
Best of the Rest
There is a local derby at the One Call Stadium when Mansfield Town take on Chesterfield in the early kick off while Coventry host an improving Crawley Town side. There is another local derby of sorts as Cambridge United play host to Stevenage while Wycombe will look to make up for their midweek defeat when they host poor travelling Yeovil Town. Forest Green welcome local rivals Cheltenham to the New Lawn.

Betting
It has been a pretty hectic schedule for the League 2 sides this week and squads are going to be tested to the limit so I don’t really want to get too jiggy with bets for this round of matches even though we don’t have another set of fixtures for two weeks.
I will go with one though and that is a Wycombe side who have a few more options this season than they have in previous ones. I heard Gareth Ainsworth on the radio after their loss on Tuesday night and he was distraught to lose so I’m expecting a reaction from them in this match. They host a Yeovil side who are terrible on the road and who may not have the options that they would like for a third match in a week. Yeovil have a couple of defenders suspended for this match which should boost Wycombe’s chances further and I’m happy to take them to get a win they desperately seek.
