Notts Co. - Stockport County

Can Notts County find the defensive consistency required to stifle a rampant Stockport County side when they meet at Meadow Lane on 24 October 2026 for matchday 13 of the League One season? The hosts arrive following a solid 2-0 victory over Sheffield Wednesday, a result that provided a necessary response after their recent struggles against Wycombe Wanderers and Oxford United. Notts County rely on a fluid attacking setup to control proceedings, but they will need to be at their most disciplined to contain a visiting team that has demonstrated clinical efficiency across the pitch.

Stockport County travel with significant momentum, having secured three consecutive league wins, including a composed 2-0 success against Doncaster Rovers. Their recent form highlights a side capable of maintaining pressure, as evidenced by their ability to shut out opponents while remaining dangerous in transition. With a strong historical record in this fixture, Stockport will look to dictate the tempo early, leaving Notts County to prove they can withstand such intense scrutiny.
