We look ahead to Match Round 1 in Sky Bet League 2, with 12 games all kicking off at 3pm on Saturday to start the new season in style.
Supporters have been eagerly anticipating this day since the 2014/15 campaign came to a close, and the wait is now over.Match Round 1 fixtures
Here’s what the fixture computer produced for the opening round in Sky Bet League 2:
Accrington Stanley v Luton Town
AFC Wimbledon v Plymouth Argyle
Bristol Rovers v Northampton Town
Cambridge United v Newport County
Exeter City v Yeovil Town
Hartlepool United v Morecambe
Leyton Orient v Barnet
Mansfield Town v Carlisle United
Oxford United v Crawley Town
Portsmouth v Dagenham & Redbridge
Stevenage v Notts County
Wycombe Wanderers v York City
Barnet and Bristol Rovers return to The Football League from the Conference and they start against Leyton Orient and Northampton Town respectively.
The Bees, who won the non-league crown last year, are away at Orient, who are managed by their former boss Ian Hendon - that will certainly add an extra edge to the fixture.
Rovers, meanwhile, host Northampton, whose last four visits to the Memorial Stadium have proved fruitless.

Elsewhere, Exeter City and Yeovil Town will celebrate the life of Adam Stansfield at St. James Park.
The striker, who played for both Exeter and Yeovil during his career, died of bowel cancer in August 2010 and the opening-day match on Saturday has been dedicated to him.
