We said: Stockport County 2-1 Bristol Rovers

Both teams have made unbeaten starts to the new League One season, but it is Stockport who have particularly impressed both going forward and at the back, and they will be regarded as favourites to maintain their perfect start to the campaign. Bristol Rovers have the potential to cause Stockport some problems in the final third, but we can see the Hatters claiming all three points in a narrow victory at Edgeley Park. Read more.
