Leyton Orient were the first team promoted from League Two last month, securing the title and a return to the third tier after seven seasons away. Stevenage joined them on the penultimate weekend after a 2-0 win over Grimsby.
The battle for the final automatic promotion spot will be contested by Northampton and Stockport. A win for the Cobblers against Tranmere at Prenton Park - live on Sky Sports Football - sends them up.

However, County will pip them should they beat Hartlepool and Northampton lose, given their superior goal difference at present. That game is live on Sky Sports Arena.

Four teams are jostling for the remaining three play-off spots. Carlisle, Salford and Bradford currently occupy them, having racked up 75 points each, but Mansfield are still holding on to hope of nipping in.
The first team to be relegated from League Two this season was Rochdale, whose 1-0 defeat to Stockport on April 22 saw their 102-year stay in the EFL come to its conclusion. Hartlepool then dropped out of the EFL despite a 3-1 win at home to Barrow last time out.
