We said: Stockport County 2-0 Gillingham

Although Gillingham have strengthened ahead of the new season, they should be no match for Stockport County, who should undoubtedly be competing for automatic promotion this season. We expect a fairly comfortable victory for the hosts in their first league game, as long as there is no hangover from their gutting defeat at Wembley last season. Read more.
