What will happen in this one though? Cast your vote so we know if you think it’ll be all smiles or disappointment come the full time whistle.
Bradford are one of a handful of sides to win both games in League One so far, whereas Blackburn have lost the opening two ahead of this meeting at Valley Parade.
Much the same as Blackburn, Charlton went into the season one of the fancied sides to do well this term – the Addicks bid to make it successive victories against a Northampton side yet to record a point.
Doncaster and Blackpool were rivals in League Two last season but following promotion they meet again at the Keepmoat Stadium. Meanwhile, the Tangerines’ near neighbours Fleetwood bid to defend a 100% record against a visiting AFC Wimbledon, another of those to secure a win.
MK Dons and Gillingham are also winless; the Gills have at least collected a point.
The perfect records of both Wigan – third – and Peterborough – second – will again be challenged when they face tough games against Oldham and Rotherham respectively.
Early season leaders, albeit on goal difference, Oxford face another unbeaten side, Scunthorpe. However, the Iron will host the U’s looking for a first win after successive draws.
