Gillingham have strong recent form with three consecutive wins and back-to-back clean sheets at home, showing good momentum and squad confidence. Cambridge United, while unbeaten in four, have defensive vulnerabilities and key absences in full-back positions, which could be exploited by Gillingham's attacking trio. The home advantage at Priestfield Stadium and Gillingham's tactical solidity with a balanced midfield and attack give them the edge in this EFL Trophy match.

Peterborough United, playing at home, have a stronger recent form in their league and cup matches compared to Colchester, who have struggled away and have a lower league standing. Peterborough's squad is mostly fit with only two midfielders sidelined, while Colchester have a full squad but have shown inconsistency and disciplinary issues recently. The head-to-head record is balanced but Peterborough have a slight edge at home. Market odds favor Peterborough with a home win at 1.95 and an Asian handicap -1 at 2.60, indicating confidence in a home victory. The weather is mild and should not affect play.

  • Crawley is still searching for their first home win of the season, adding pressure to their performance.

  • MK Dons announced that their League One home match against Bromley scheduled for September 26 has been postponed because several Bromley first-team players were called up for international duty. The postponement met EFL criteria for rescheduling. MK Dons reassured fans that tickets for the original fixture will remain valid for the rearranged date, which is yet to be confirmed.

  • MK Dons will host Crawley Town at Stadium MK in the EFL Trophy group stage. MK Dons have yet to win this season, drawing six of seven League One games and losing once. Aaron Collins has scored five goals in seven league games and is expected to lead the attack. Crawley Town have lost their last three matches but remain unbeaten against MK Dons in their last four meetings. Crawley may make changes to their lineup after recent defeats.

MK Dons have a slight edge playing at home with a solid recent home form and a strong squad featuring key players like Aaron Collins and Callum Paterson in good form.

Colo Colo has a strong historical dominance over Audax Italiano in head-to-head matches and is currently in better form with a higher league standing and more consistent results. Despite playing at a neutral venue (Estadio Nacional) instead of Audax Italiano's usual home ground, Colo Colo's squad depth and recent performances, including a strong attacking record, give them the edge. Audax Italiano has no significant injuries but Colo Colo's only notable absentee is their first-choice goalkeeper, which is mitigated by their strong defensive and midfield setup. Market odds also favor Colo Colo, reinforcing the expectation of an away win.

  • Notts County will start their EFL Trophy campaign against Grimsby Town at Meadow Lane. The team is struggling in League One, sitting 20th with seven points from seven games and winless in their last four matches. Manager Martin Paterson is expected to field a weakened side for the cup, with players like Rodney McDonald, Matty Platt, and Luke Browne possibly forming a back three. Midfield options could include Matthew Palmer, Max Sanders, and Kameron Muir, while forwards Emile Acquah and Daniel Kanu may replace Callum Roberts and Lee Ndlovu. Meadow Lane has not been a stronghold this season, with one win and one loss in three home games.

  • Notts County head coach Martin Paterson reflected on his team's 2-0 defeat to Reading, noting a good start but a lack of energy and finishing after halftime. He stressed the need for his players to improve their chance creation and to work harder in training to challenge opposition goalkeepers more effectively. Paterson acknowledged that the team must learn lessons at this level and be wary of clinical opponents like Reading's Jack Marriott.

  • Notts County secured promotion to League One last season via the playoffs under manager Martin Paterson, who was appointed in June 2025. Paterson, a former forward with a 13-year playing career including Northern Ireland caps, favors possession-based, front-footed football. The club signed 14 players in the summer, including free transfers James Gibbons, Matt Baker, Max Sanders, and Callum Roberts, as well as paid signings Rosaire Longelo, Darius Lipsiuc, Jack Evans, Dean Campbell, Emile Acquah, and Luka Smyth. Loan signings include Ishe Samuels-Smith, Ollie Cooper, Hindolo Mustapha, and Daniel Kanu. The expected formation is 3-4-2-1 with a patient build-up style.

Draw

This EFL Trophy match is at a neutral venue, negating home advantage for Notts County. Both teams have similar recent form and competitive spirit, with Grimsby showing strong home form and Notts County fielding a somewhat weakened side. The head-to-head record is fairly balanced, and both lineups have key players available except for one sidelined midfielder for Notts. Market odds slightly favor Notts County but not decisively. Given the cup context and neutral ground, a draw is the most reasonable outcome.
