Having won five of their opening seven matches under Lee Grant, Huddersfield make the short trip to Yorkshire neighbours Bradford on Saturday afternoon, sat 3rd in the League One table. The Terriers have assembled a squad which is the envy of the third tier, with the likes of Joe Low, Herbie Kane and Alfie May particularly impressing early on. They’ve scored more goals than any other side in the league and have also allowed the 6th-fewest expected goals too. The only defeat in their last six came away at Barnsley, where two goalkeeping errors and a 36th-minute red card sealed their fate, aside from that, they’ve been impressive across the board.

Hosts Bradford are enjoying an excellent start of their own. The recently promoted Bantams are 5th in the league standings and have won all three games at Valley Parade, scoring seven in the process. However, their failure to beat two of the league’s poorest sides in Peterborough and Northampton, as well as having been dispatched 3-1 by fellow newbies Doncaster last weekend hints at an upcoming reversal in fortunes. They have seen off one of the other title favourites at home in beating Luton, but this Huddersfield side may be a step too far.

Another side who have begun the campaign in fantastic form are league leaders Cardiff who are still unbeaten and have only conceded once across their six matches. They’ve won the expected goals battle in five of those games, and although they’ve had a relatively favourable fixture list, their defensive solidity has been seriously impressive, and their 4-0 thrashing of Plymouth, who were relegated from the Championship with them last season, shows they are a level above many sides in this division. Top scorer Rubin Colwill looks a cut above League One, whilst Nathan Trott’s emergence on loan has gone a long way to securing their excellent defensive record.

By contrast, despite being many people’s dark horses for promotion this season, Stockport have looked uncharacteristically leaky at the back and have now won just one of their last five League One matches. Last weekend, the Plymouth side that were brushed aside so comfortably by the Bluebirds hit Stockport for four, and their record of having faced the 2nd-most shots of any team in the division will be a major concern for Dave Challinor. They’ve also created the 9th-lowest expected goals in attack and clearly, all is not right at Edgeley Park. These sides come into this on completely different recent trajectories, and despite being the away side, Cardiff look the most likely victors.

Putting up a selection that has occurred in 0% of Crewe’s home games and 0% of Barnet’s away games so far was probably not what I envisaged when I started looking at the League Two slate for the weekend. But value is what I'm after.

Crewe will be looking to bounce back, having failed to win in their last three league games, losing 3-0 to Swindon the last time they played at The Mornflake Stadium in the league. Prior to that, Crewe had started well and topped the early League Two table. They have scored in all but two of their seven league games.

Barnet have also scored in five of their seven league games, five in a row after two early-season blanks. They look capable of scoring goals with some impressive attacking stats against the rest of League Two: 4th for shots on target per match and touches in the opposition box, and 6th for big chances created. It's about time BTTS copped.

2nd-placed Swindon host 15th-placed Harrogate at The County Ground on Saturday, and despite being odds-on to win, I still feel the 1.70 available is pretty good value for a side who have been impressive so far this season.

The Robins have won five of their seven games thus far, and whilst the xG table has them two points worse off than the actual table, it still agrees that they have been the 2nd-best side in League Two so far. They have coped admirably with losing main striker Harry Smith, winning all three games since and bringing in a replacement target man in Ollie Palmer.

Harrogate got off to a decent start, picking up eight points in their first four games, but have since lost three in a row, whilst scoring just once. Two of those were tough fixtures against Bromley and Chesterfield, but they’re arguably up against an even better side here, and look set for four defeats on the spin.
