    Bristol Rovers 0-0 Rotherham

    A win for Steve Evans' Bristol Rovers would be their 10th in-a-row at the Memorial Ground.

    That is some feat.

    Leicester City boss Russell Martin hands new striker Emil Riis a start on his debut following his deadline day move from Bristol City.

    Brighton loanee Tommy Watson is among the substitutes for the Foxes while there is no place in the squad just yet for John Lundstram who is recovering from injury.

    For Oxford, captain Cameron Brannagan will hope to feed Mark Harris with quality service while there is a start for 18-year-old winger Mo Missanga.

  5. Can Rotherham stop their former manager?published at 14:56 BST 5 September

    Bristol Rovers v Rotherham (15:00 BST)

    Rotherham face a daunting task in trying to stop their former manager Steve Evans as they take on Bristol Rovers at the Memorial Ground this afternoon.

    To say the Gas have transformed since Evans took over in December is a wild understatement, with the early league leaders unbeaten at home since February.

    The Millers have had a modest start to the season, and Alex Bruce’s side managed to scrape a last-minute point away to Tranmere on Tuesday, to build on their first win of the season three days earlier.

    A reminder that Evans won back-to-back promotions for Rotherham between 2012 and 2014, taking them from League Two to the Championship. It’s a feat he will no doubt want to repeat in the West Country.

  6. Crewe and York could go top with a winpublished at 14:53 BST 5 September

    Crewe v York (15:00 BST)

    Crewe will hope to get back to winning ways when they welcome York to the Mornflake Stadium this afternoon.

    Lee Bell's men won their opening two matches but after dropping points to bottom side Port Vale, they almost slipped to defeat against Walsall had it not been for a last minute thunderbolt by Reece Hutchinson.

    York's unbeaten run was ended on Tuesday in a thrilling 3-2 loss against Cheltenham, and even though it again proved Scott Lindsey's side can score goals this season (8), it was a stark reminder they are leaky at the back, too (7).

    A win for either side could send them top of League Two if results elsewhere fall their way, but one's thing for sure: This one is bound to produce goals.

    Leicester City host Oxford United in a battle of two of the relegated clubs from the Championship last season.

    Russell Martin's side saw off Plymouth Argyle 2-0 in midweek and welcomed a plethora of new signings in the final week of the transfer window, including John Lundstram from Turkish club Trabzonspor on a free.

    The Foxes have failed to win any of their past four league games against Oxford with the U's winning on their past two trips to the King Power Stadium.

    Leicester boss Russell Martin lost goalkeeper Jakub Stolarczyk to a knee injury on Tuesday night, which is likely to keep him out for the season, with Alex McCarthy set to deputise in his absence as the Foxes look for their third clean sheet in a row - a feat they have not achieved since October 2022.

  10. Cracking encounter in storepublished at 14:40 BST 5 September

    Huddersfield v Notts Co (15:00 BST)

    Two sides who have made unbeaten starts to their League One campaign clash at the Accu Stadium.

    Huddersfield Town under Martin Drury have been pretty impressive with their three wins and one draw so far. I was there when they beat Cambridge and Oxford and you couldn't have had more contrasting fixtures!

    Away at Cambridge they played very poorly but came away with the win and on Tuesday night against Oxford they could and should have scored more then the three goals they did get, such was their superiority.

    Today's opponents won't make it easy, Martin Paterson has got Notts playing a very good brand of football and they are pretty adaptable in games.

    They have settled into their new surroundings a division higher very quickly. Despite losing some key players during the summer they have bought well and look destined to have a good season in the third tier.

    There's every chance this could be a cracking encounter.

  11. Terriers welcome Magpiespublished at 14:36 BST 5 September

    What a start to the season it's been for Huddersfield Town. Top of the table before lunchtime and a chance to regain that spot now.

    Three wins and a draw to kick off their league campaign before they host newly-promoted Notts County this afternoon.

    The Terriers have not played the Magpies in the league since a 2-2 draw in January 2012.

    Martin Paterson's side have started this season very well too, currently 10th following their promotion via the play-offs in May, and have won their past two away league games against sides from Yorkshire. They have not won three in a row in the county since 1997.

  13. FULL-TIMEpublished at 14:28 BST 5 September

    Peterborough 1-2 Sheffield Wednesday

    Full-time and, as things stand, Sheffield Wednesday are top of League One!

    They had to work very hard for the three points with Yan Valery turning the ball home from an in-swinging corner with 10 minutes left.

    The Owls led at the break because of a Josh Feeney own goal but were pegged back moments after half-time when Ben Woods headed home unmarked from close range.

    Barry Bannan salutes the travelling 4,000 fans.

    Fleetwood 2-0 Shrewsbury

    Fleetwood continue their unbeaten start to the season to pick up their second win thanks to goals from Ronan Coughlan and Aaron Loupalo-Bi in each half.

    Early days but it's defeat number four for Shrewsbury who continue to struggle to get going.

  15. FULL-TIMEpublished at 14:24 BST 5 September

    Wigan 0-4 Stockport

    A fantastic afternoon's work for Stockport County.

    They had this Greater Manchester derby wrapped up after 20 minutes.

    Goals from Kyle Wootton, Harry Wood and Jack Diamond, all terrifically worked goals, saw them race into a three-goal lead.

    Ryan Glover wrapped things up moments before full-time. The Hatters are now 17 matches unbeaten in the league against sides from Greater Manchester.

  16. CLOSE!published at 14:24 BST 5 September

    Peterborough 1-2 Sheff Wed

    How has this stayed out? Posh so close to leveling up late on.

    The ball is nodded down to Harry Ashfield around three yards out but superb last-ditch defending keeps Wednesday's noses in front.

  17. FULL-TIMEpublished at 14:22 BST 5 September

    Salford 1-0 Port Vale

    Salford celebrateImage source, Shutterstock

    Salford have just about dragged themselves over the finish line here, but three points and back-to-back wins are all that matters.

    It was a grim opening to this tie, and in the latter stages of the first 45 minutes Port Vale were easily the better side.

    However, Jon Brady's men could not keep up that momentum and it was heartbreak for the visitors when keeper Jackson Smith fumbled a Joe Powell free kick into his own net.

    On another day Salford might have come out of this one with nothing, but Peter Cklamovski's promotion favourites are proving they have steel.

    Salford move up to 13th, and Port Vale stay bottom.

  18. INJURY TIMEpublished at 14:22 BST 5 September

    Fleetwood 2-0 Shrewsbury

    We're into five minutes of added time here as Fleetwood look like picking up the three points.

    GOAL: Wigan 0-4 Stockportpublished at 14:21 BST 5 September

    Ryan Glover (90 mins)

    The cherry on the icing on the top of the cake for Stockport County.

    Ryan Glover gets his second goal for his new side, tapping home from close range.

    Good work once more from Jason Adigun but when his shot was well saved by Joe Whitworth, the ball fell kindly for Glover to round off the win emphatically.

    An excellent away performance from the Hatters. Wigan fans are leaving in their droves.
