When are the League Two fixtures announced? EFL schedule details



Salford City are the big name addition to the Football League next season.

After winning the National League play-offs, the Ammies have been promoted to League Two – and they will find out their fixtures soon.

They will now come up against the likes of Oldham, Grimsby, Stevenage and Swindon in one of the most competitive leagues in the country.

The fixtures are all but decided for the coming campaign – but when will you find out your team’s final schedule?

Here is all you need to know..

When are the League Two fixtures released?

The League Two fixtures will be revealed on Thursday 20 June at 9am BST.

Where can you find the League Two fixture announcement?

The League Two fixtures will be revealed across the Reach PLC sport network.

How is the League Two fixture list order decided?

The order of the fixtures is created by a method called ‘sequencing’, which generates fixtures by separating teams into five different sets, which are then reversed for the second half of the season.

For this method there are ‘golden rules’ which declare that there is a divide of three home fixtures and two away in any five matches.

Most teams will have a partner club they are not allowed to clash with, for example Cheltenham and Forest Green are unlikely to play at home on the same day.

When does the season start?

The first set of games to take place for the start of the 2019/20 season are scheduled for Saturday 3 August 2019.
