League Two Weekend Preview

Swindon Town can be promoted, but the issues at the bottom will have to wait.

Swindon Town can join Hartlepool United and Walsall in winning promotion to League One this weekend.

The Robins, who face Bristol Rovers on Saturday, need just one point from their final two games to secure a top-three finish.

Hartlepool can be crowned champions, while a whole host of teams are still in with a shout of a play-off place.

The issues at the bottom cannot be resolved until the final week of the season, with Accrington Stanley and Macclesfield Town facing each other.

Boston United face already relegated Torquay United and could find themselves out of the relegation zone if results go their way.

The weekend's action begins early on Saturday with Hereford United facing Shrewsbury Town and Grimsby Town hosting Lincoln City in lunchtime kick-offs.
