    Tranmere Rovers 0-0 Rotherham United

    Both managers have made three changes for tonight's match. Dylan Jones, a forward who signed on loan from Norwich City last Friday, comes in for his first start for Tranmere Rovers, replacing Charlie Whittaker.

    Darrell Clarke has also brought in experienced midfielder Sam Finley to replace Tom Conlon, while Jordan Turnbull comes in for Nathan Smith in defence.

    As for Rotherham, summer signing Paul Mullin is rewarded for his late goal on Saturday that snatched the Millers a point.

    The striker replaces Tom Bradshaw up front, while Josh Austerfield and Joe Rafferty come into the defence in place of Kieran Ngwenya and Emmanuel Adegboyega.

    Rochdale 0-0 Shrewsbury Town

    Rochdale manager Ian Watson has made four changes for this evening's game at home to Shrewsbury Town, with forward Emmanuel Dieseruvwe hoping to provide goals for a side that have scored just once in the league so far this season.

    Winger Tobi Adebayo-Rowling also comes in for Zain Silcott-Duberry. Changes in midfield see Ed Francis and Luke Hannant replace Ryan East and Harvey Gilmour, with defender Sam Sherring the other player to make way in what could be a change in formation from last weekend's draw at Newport.

    Gavin Cowan's Shrewsbury are unchanged from Saturday's win over Salford City.

    Crewe Alexandra 0-0 Walsall

    Lee Grant has seen an opportunity to rotate his team tonight, making five changes to his Walsall team, with Elicha Ahui and James Connolly coming into their defence in place of Rico Browne and Harrison Burke.

    Leeds United loanee Charlie Crew, Andrew Dallas and Lewis Simpler are the changes in midfield.

    Just the three changes by comparison for Crewe Alexandra. Regular captain Mickey Demetriou is benched along with Jordan Gibson and Jack Lankester. Joe White, Charlie McNeill and Calum Agius are their replacements.

    Bromley boss Andy Woodman has rung the changes from Saturday's 7-2 hammering at Sheffield Wednesday with six alterations.

    There is no Chanse Headman or JJ McKiernan, while Michael Cheek, Will Hondermarck, Corey Whiteley and Kamarl Grant are on the bench.

    In come Richard Taylor, George Saville, Ethon Archer, Ben Thompson, Jacob Mendy and Victor Adeboyejo.

    New signing Jodi Jones will have to wait for his debut.

    James Morris misses out for Leyton Orient, while Armando Dobra and Tony Springett are among the replacements.

    League One & League Two

    We know you have got at least one eye on what's going on with the transfer deadline and potentially your club adding new faces, but actual games of football have also just broken out as well...

  15. Elsewhere in League Twopublished at 19:41 BST 1 September

    All to kick-off at 19:45 BST

    We will also bring you updates in the other nine League Two fixtures taking place this evening.

    Bristol Rovers host Colchester in a clash between sides in the top seven, both sides having won their previous two league games.

    After being relegated from League One last season, Exeter City have picked up just one league win so far. They host table-toppers Barnet, who have scored in every game so far this season.

    Elsewhere, York City will look to continue their good start on their return to the Football League as they travel to Cheltenham. Second-bottom Salford will be desperate to change their early form as they welcome Newport, with struggling Accrington taking on Grimsby at home.

    Gillingham and Port Vale will both look to move away from the wrong end of the table this evening with trips to Chesterfield and Swindon respectively. Northampton Town host Crawley at Sixfields, while Oldham make the trip to Fleetwood.

    After two consecutive defeats, Rochdale came close to picking up their first point of the season on Saturday, conceding in the 87th minute of a 1-0 loss to Colchester United.

    It was a different story for Shrewsbury Town, who got themselves off the mark in League Two with a narrow victory by the same scoreline at home to Salford City.

    A problem for Ian Watson's side has been scoring goals, only defender Ethan Ebanks-Landell has found the net in the league so far.

    Gavin Cowan's Shrewsbury haven't produced a goal in any of their past three away league games stretching back to last season. They are looking for successive league wins at Rochdale for the first time in the club's history.

  17. Unbeaten Tranmere seek another home winpublished at 19:37 BST 1 September

    Tranmere Rovers and Rotherham United experienced quite different emotions in the 90th minute of their matches on Saturday.

    Alex Bruce's team scored a late winner at home to Chesterfield through summer signing Paul Mullin. But in that same moment, Darrell Clarke's side conceded a second goal in their 2-2 draw at Newport County, and the chance of a first away league win of the season slipped out of their grasp.

    Three points for Tranmere today would make it the first time that they have won back-to-back home league games at the start of the season since the 2012-13 campaign.

    Rotherham had a terrible away record at the end of last season in League One. Adding Saturday to that means that they have lost 13 out of their past 15 league games on their travels, a run they will very much hope to improve on tonight.

  18. Good start to season for Crewe and Walsallpublished at 19:35 BST 1 September

    Crewe Alexandra v Walsall (19:45 BST)

    Crewe Alexandra, who are unbeaten and yet to concede in League Two this season, host a Walsall side who have kept four clean sheets in five games in all competitions.

    They are two of five teams with an almost-identical record at the top end of the early-season table, with both having posted two wins and a draw from their opening three fixtures.

    Walsall have also won each of their past three league games against today's opponents and they will be looking to win four in a row for the first time since 1963.

    The Saddlers have not won their first two away league games of a season since the 2015-16 campaign, but there should be plenty of cause for optimism for both teams heading into tonight.

  19. Elsewhere in League Onepublished at 19:34 BST 1 September

    All to kick-off at 19:45 BST

    Aside from our featured games we will bring you the important updates from four other games taking place in League One tonight.

    Leicester City host Plymouth and will be desperate to pick up those three points that have so far eluded them. Their only win this season remains a 1-0 victory over Northampton Town in the Carabao Cup.

    Stevenage visit Peterborough and will be aiming to get their first league win on the board. Posh will want to bounce back after their heavy 4-0 defeat by Blackpool at the weekend.

    Sheffield Wednesday are at Wycombe tonight off the back of a huge 7-2 win over Bromley last time out. The Chairboys were also on the wrong end of a thrashing, losing 5-1 to Stockport County.

    Doncaster welcome Notts County this evening and are another side still searching for a first victory. County triumphed over Burton on Saturday, winning 2-1, and will be hoping for a similar outcome at the Club Doncaster Sports Village.

  20. Bantams and U's seek bouncebackabilitypublished at 19:33 BST 1 September

    Bradford City v Cambridge United (19:45 BST)

    While Bradford CIty were conceding their first goals and losing their first game of the season at Plymouth on Saturday, Cambridge United were coughing-up a 1-0 lead to lose at home to the Bantams' West Yorkshire neighbours Huddersfield Town.

    In fact, the respective form of these two is not that great, more so given Bradford reached the League One play-offs last season, while the U's won automatic promotion from League Two.

    It is just three wins each from their past 10 games, hardly form which would suggest their recent successes.

    Midfielder Kieran Morgan (QPR) and defender Hayden Matthews (Portsmouth) have both arrived on loan at Bradford since the weekend defeat, with the addition of Championship experience showing the ambition boss Graham Alexander has for his side.

    Cambridge boss Neil Harris branded his side "unprofessional" after the late loss to Huddersfield. He can expect another tough examination at Valley Parade tonight.
