Saturday in League Two sees first-place Salford City looking to extend their lead at the top when they host eighth-placed Exeter City. The Grecians have the league's best defence and a trip to the Ammies has us backing a tight, low-scoring contest for our match prediction.
It’s been a fantastic start to the 2026-27 campaign for Salford City as they look to earn promotion after eight straight seasons in England’s fourth tier. They’ve come out of the gates with nine victories and a draw from their opening 13 matches, putting them on 28 points, three ahead of second-place Barnet.
They’re coming off an entertaining 4-2 away victory over Walsall on Monday, a result which extended their winning run to four and their unbeaten run to seven across all competitions. While their away matches have been quite back-and-forth affairs, their home outings have been the opposite.
Exeter City come into this fixture following a 2-1 home win over Fleetwood Town. The visitors are on a good stretch of form, winning their last two in a row while extending their unbeaten run to six across all competitions (W4).
The Grecians have found it really tough going on the road, as they’ve lost four of six away trips. Goals have been hard to come by as well, with Exeter scoring just twice in those six games. They’re boosted by the league’s best defence, though, which has conceded just seven goals in 13 games so far.
