Matches involving half of the division are taking place on Tuesday evening, with all but 1 of them having some ramifications for the teams chasing the promotion and playoff berths. It's another night that could go either way for the blues - we will remain 4th with a victory, moving to within a point of Northampton and the automatic promotion spaces; but could drop to 7th should we drop points and other results go against us.
Swindon (6th) vs Stevenage (2nd) - Stevenage look home and dry in the promotion race, and will go top if they win at the County Ground. Swindon are just a point behind us, so anything but a home win would be preferable here.
Colchester (19th) vs Salford (5th) - Salford are another side just a point behind us. They're in good form and looking for a third straight win. Colchester's recent turnaround was brought crashing down by Gillingham today, but the Us will be no push over as they bid to put some distance between themselves and the relegation battle.
Stockport (10th) vs Bradford (7th) - A win for County would move them level on points with Bradford, who are just 2 points behind us. Stockport's form has seriously picked up, with 4 wins in their last 5, and it may be that a point here suits us best.
Wimbledon (13th) vs Walsall (11th) - Two sides far from out of contention, with Walsall currently trailing us by 5 points (with a game in hand) - and Wimbledon just a point behind them. Walsall arguably pose the bigger threat of the two, so it's be preferable that they drop points here.
Grimsby travel to Crawley in the other game.
