Match Previews

In terms of head to head, it's simple - Notts County and Boreham Wood have never met before. Boreham Wood FC were established in 1948 as a merger of Boreham Rovers and Royal Retournez, and began playing in the Mid-Herts League. Throughout their history they have played in the non-league, beginning at levels such as the Parthenon League, the Spartan League and the Athenian League. They have however steadily climbed up to the higher levels of the non-league, as well as reaching the

Notts have a chance to go as high as 10th tonight, provided the magpies win away to Wycombe. With the game being in hand, it’s important that we come away with at least a point. Whereas Wycombe have a chance to creep inside the play-offs, possibly replacing Mansfield Town or at least move to 8th place if all the points remain at Adams Park. With confidence around Meadow Lane glowing within each performance, Ricardo Moniz will be hoping for some of it travelling away from home with

Pressure on the Pies - Fortress Meadow Lane holds play to a Notts team looking to break their maiden this weekend and strike up their first win of the 2013/4 season campaign. The visitors, Stevenage, arrive as one of only 3 teams not to score a point this season. Albeit one of those teams is Coventry who are on -4 points having started on -10, after having a point deduction for going into administration back in March. Notts have not been in imperious form themselves so far, facing stiff t

Our last meeting was a win, the Stags beate

So, here we are. The cup competitions have gifted us with a fantastic tie against one of the big Premiership teams for the second time in three years. After the double header against eventual FA Cup winners Manchester City, Notts County prepare to travel to none other than Liverpool, one of the most successful and best supported clubs in England, for a League Cup Second Round tie. Liverpool need no introduction. Their history is illustrious and trophy-laden. They have won the league a mas

Tonight Notts will meet the very top of League Two, as we prepare to take on Leyton Orient. They've started the 2013/14 season very well, the spirit with their play is positive and they've enjoyed successive victories over some very decent sides. Leyton Orient are undefeated, impressively they've scored a total of 16 goals so far in only 6 games and have only seen 4 goals put past them. Ex Notts County manager Russell Slade will no doubt be fairly confident ahead of our clash, so it's dow

Notts County have the chance to progress to the second round of the FA Cup after earning a first-round replay against Boreham Wood, to be played Tuesday night at Meadow Lane. The Magpies had to come from two goals down in the initial tie at Meadow Park, Adam Campbell bailing the visitors out with a brace for a final scoreline of 2-2. John Sheridan will be without Vadaine Oliver, who was sent off just 25 minutes after coming on as a second-half substitute in the 4-0 defeat at Blackpool

Carlisle United and Notts County have met on just 28 occasions since their first clash back in October 1959, a Fourth Division clash that was won 2-0 by the Cumbrians.

The Cumbrians were relegated at the end of the 2013-14 season. Carlisle United is one of the northernmost

Notts could go as high as ninth in League Two and a solitary point off the playoffs if they win away at Carlisle United and results go their way – a victory would put us on 32 points. The Cumbrians, meanwhile, are just within the top seven, but with four teams – Mansfield, Bristol Rovers, Leyton Orient and Wycombe – just three points or less behind them, they could be slip out. Today’s other League Two fixtures (all 15:00 kickoffs):

Notts have met Tranmere 34 times. Notts: 18 Draw: 8 Tranmere: 18 The last time Notts won at Tranmere was in the 2010-11 season when Notts ended a run of 9 straight defeats and lifted themselves out of the relegation zone. Stats Tranmere’s home record this season stands at: PLD 16, W9, D4, L3. Notts have only played once away from home since deadline day, a 2-1 win at Forest Green Rovers. That was only their second away win all season, the other coming at Macclesfield.

Notts face yet another important meeting tomorrow afternoon at Meadow Lane. The visit of Tranmere Rovers is hardly a glamorous one, but an ugly performance is all that it will take to relieve the pressure on the pies. Chris Kiwomya has made a lot about not having a starting eleven and suffering from constant injuries and suspensions. However, I take a different view and believe that the management just cannot nail down the best set-up and team. This is by no means a jibe at the management

Doncaster Rovers could include new signing Abdul Razak in their squad against Notts County, pending international clearance. The former Manchester City man has completed his move from Greek club OFI Crete, signing a deal at the Keepmoat until the end of the season. Doncaster have no new problems following the 1-0 home victory over South Yorkshire rivals Barnsley. Midfielder Dean Furman is still away with South Africa at the African Cup of

With only two games featuring tonight with Oldham v Rochdale being postponed, all play-off chasers and hopefuls will be keeping an eye out on the result of our game. Preston North End will be hoping to beat Yeovil so they can move back to 3rd whilst Yeovil could move to 21st if everything works out for them. Notts will be hoping the squad additions can continue to help us progress, whilst Doncaster will be focusing on how to take the game to us and using the home

Head to head Notts County and Cambridge United have met 27 times in their history. The first meeting came on Boxing Day 1970 at Meadow Lane, with the Magpies earning a 4-1 win. Notts hold the advantage in the head to head, with 11 wins, 7 draws and 9 defeats against the U’s. Recent form is not good, however - we've lost our last four meetings against Cambridge.
