Notts County kick off the new League Two season at Newport County in just under three weeks.

It is a season they hope will lead to promotion after last season’s play-off defeat.

New manager Martin Paterson has assembled the squad he feels will be up to that task, though County are going to face tough competition from MK Dons, Chesterfield, Salford City and more for a top three spot.

Here is how PaddyPower see the promotion race going.
