This weekend's action offers plenty of treats for those that follow League Two football.

With Saturday's fixture list packed to the rafters, the latest fixtures promise to deliver entertainment all around.

High-flying Torquay had their 100 per cent record snapped last time out and the Seagulls will be keen to return to winning ways when they host Accrington Stanley, who are quickly becoming draw specialists with four stalemates already this season.

Torquay's defeat allowed Shrewsbury Town to snatch top spot and they travel to Gillingham to take on a side who are awaiting their first win of the campaign.

Another team searching for their first taste of victory is basement-boys Morecombe and they play host to unbeaten Chesterfield, who sit third in the table.

Port Vale made amends for their first defeat of the term as they got back to winning ways last time out and Micky Adams' side welcome an Aldershot Town side who have drawn three on the spin.

Fifth-placed Rotherham United and sixth-placed Burton Albion lock horns at the Don Valley Stadium with the home side looking for a response from their first reverse of the campaign.

Consolidate

Bury are the last team to occupy a play-off spot and they will be looking to consolidate their league position when they make the trip to Crewe Alexandra - a side looking for their first win in three matches.

Wycombe Wanderers have failed to claim maximum points since the opening day of the season but the Chairboys remain unbeaten and they welcome struggling Macclesfield Town, who have yet to register a victory this term.

Southend United have come into form of late, winning successive league games as they make the journey to Northampton Town, one of the many sides without a win this year.

New-boys Oxford United and Stevenage have fared well so far this season and they both face away clashes with Hereford United and Cheltenham Town respectively.

Stockport County and Barnet both acquired that winning feeling for the first time last weekend and they will be out to repeat their successes.

Hoping to leave the duo empty-handed are Bradford City and Lincoln City, who have endured torrid starts to their seasons and will be hoping to kick-start their campaigns this Saturday.
