Peterborough v Doncaster

Peterborough need one more victory to seal promotion to the Championship and can finish the job in style by sweeping aside 13th-placed Doncaster.

The absence of fans has reduced the significance of home advantage for several clubs but doesn't seem to have affected Posh, who have won 15 of their 21 league matches at London Road.

Darren Ferguson's side are the division's second top scorers but they have a steely side and put it to good use during Saturday's hard-fought 1-0 success at playoff-chasing Charlton.

Peterborough are capable of winning games in different ways and might be able to cut loose against Donny, who have fallen apart since the start of February, when they were third in the table.

Rovers still have a mathematical chance of reaching the top six but they have lost seven of their last eight games and their dismal run looks set to continue.

Newport v Scunthorpe

Newport have been making hard work of nailing down a League Two playoff spot but they can stay in the top seven for at least a few more days by defeating struggling Scunthorpe at Rodney Parade.

Mike Flynn's side have won just two of their last nine games but they played well in a 0-0 draw at promotion rivals Exeter on Saturday and should have too much quality and power for injury-hit Scunny, who have lost four on the bounce and are not quite safe from relegation.

Bradford v Salford

Salford are peaking at just the right time and can keep up the pressure in the League Two playoff race by defeating Bradford at Valley Parade.

The Ammies have taken 14 points from seven games this month and should appreciate facing the mid-table Bantams, who are on a four-game losing sequence.

Forest Green v Barrow

Playoff-chasing Forest Green and relegation-threatened Barrow need points for different reasons in the League Two run-in and it could be the lowly visitors who are celebrating after their clash in Gloucestershire.

Four more points would guarantee survival for Barrow and they can get at least one of them against stuttering Rovers, who have won just once in nine games.
