The home supporters can't complain about results here at Vale Park as Port Vale have scored 22 goals to get 30 points from 15 games. The overall stats in the League Two are 8-6-1 (wins-draws-losses).

Salford City form and stats

6-4-5 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Salford City in their League Two matches away. Salford City has recorded two wins in a row in their away matches and hold legitimate hopes of a third one.

As mentioned above, Salford City was the only team on the pitch versus Cambridge United in their previous game, winning 4-0. This could be a tougher task.
