Peterborough to win at Port Vale
Quite simply i think Posh are the best side in this division and backed that theory up with a comfortable 2-0 home win against previously unbeaten Preston last week. They've won 8 from 10 in the league and have won 4 from 5 away. They have always been able to score goals under Darren Ferguson but now look much tighter at the back, a potent combination. Vale have had a solid but unspectacular start and should find it tough this Saturday.
Brentford to beat Stevenage
Stevenage are pretty awful to put it bluntly, they have lost their last 4 league games, haven't won in 6 and have scored just 3 goals in that period. They also have a woeful home record with just 1 point from their first 4. Brentford will be slightly disappointed with their start but still sit in 10th place and have performed better on the road this season, winning their last 2 and scoring 6 goals in the process. Evens is a cracking price for the Bees this Saturday.
Oxford to beat Northampton
The home side are 19 places above their visitors on Saturday and yet you can still back them at even money with some bookies, which seems serious value. Oxford haven't been too strong at home but that may be down to playing some of the better teams in the division there already this season. Northampton had lost their first 4 away games of the season before winning 2-0 at Wimbledon last Saturday, also scoring their first away goals of the season in the process. That result may be why you can get such decent odds on Oxford, but it was the exception rather than the rule.
