Doncaster vs Accrington Stanley

Doncaster finished the League Two season in emphatic fashion last season, winning 13 of their last 18 games to make the playoffs, and they should be in the shake-up again this term. Rovers open with a pretty soft assignment against Accrington, who finished 17th in League Two last term and have lost some of their star assets.

Walsall vs Morecambe

Walsall won 12 home fixtures on their way to last season's 11th-place finish in League Two and they can make the most of home advantage against Morecambe, who have had a difficult summer due to a transfer embargo and are expected to be in the relegation mix.

Birmingham vs Reading

Birmingham are red-hot favourites in the League One title race after a summer of big spending and they can make a winning start at home to Reading, who lack the squad depth of the Blues and won only four of their 23 away league games last term.

Stockport vs Cambridge

This looks a tough test for Cambridge, who limped to an 18th-placed finish in League One last season, as promoted Stockport look like they mean business. The Hatters won 15 of their 23 home league games in League Two last season and they have recruited shrewdly over the summer.
