EFL League Two PREVIEW 5 Sep 2026: Leaders Bristol Rovers meet Rotherham as Ainsworth demands a Gillingham win

The model's read of EFL League Two's 12-game card for 5 September: its firmest call is Bristol Rovers over Rotherham United at 61%, and the one it is least sure of is Exeter City against Walsall, little more than a coin-toss.

Across the rest, it makes home favourites of Bristol Rovers (v Rotherham United), Fleetwood Town (v Shrewsbury Town), Salford City (v Port Vale), Accrington Stanley (v Crawley Town), Cheltenham Town (v Grimsby Town), Crewe Alexandra (v York City), Northampton Town (v Newport County), Rochdale (v Gillingham), Swindon Town (v Colchester United), Tranmere Rovers (v Oldham Athletic); it leans to the visitors at Barnet (at Chesterfield), Walsall (at Exeter City).
