Former Hull City and Peterborough United striker turned Final Score expert Aaron MacLean looks back at the latest round in the Championship, League 1, and League 2.
The key takeaways and observations from MacLean on the weekend's key matches:
West Ham's dismal run: Under Nuno Espirito Santo, the Hammers are having a tough start to their season after relegation from the Premier League. After squandering a two-goal lead against Burnley to finish 2-2, they suffered a surprising home defeat to Charlton (1-2), missing a penalty in the dying moments. MacLean stressed that with 62,000 fans watching, the team shouldn't struggle to clinch games from the spot, hinting at a need for serious changes in mentality and squad.
Perfect starts for Millwall and Charlton: Only two teams in the Championship have picked up maximum points from the opening two rounds. Millwall thrashed Norwich 3-0 at The Den, looking like the main contenders for automatic promotion thanks to their solid defence and attacking prowess. Meanwhile, Charlton under Nathan Jones are also unbeaten, showing a more entertaining, open style of football.
Wolves end away drought: Wolverhampton managed their first away victory in over 16 months, defeating Preston 3-1 with a brace from Fera Lopes, breaking a dismal run of 489 days without an away league win. MacLean noted that Wolves are adapting to the Championship much better than West Ham and Burnley.
Nightmare for Leicester in League 1: It's been a tough adjustment for the Foxes, who find themselves in the third tier a decade after their sensational Premier League triumph. They fell at home to Burton Albion (1-2), playing with ten men. Russell Martin now faces the daunting task of mentally rebuilding a club used to constant struggles.
Transformation at Bristol Rovers: Steve Evans has completely turned around the club's fortunes after a horrendous run of ten consecutive defeats last season. This Saturday, the team put on a goal fest against Newport County, winning 5-3.
