Chesterfield form and stats

13-2-6 (win-draw-lost) are the National League numbers at home for Chesterfield so far this season.

A nice win for Chesterfield last time playing, versus Eastleigh. That was also a home game and the match ended 3-2 with Colclough (2) and Dallas scoring for the victors. The game against Eastleigh had lots of late drama as Chesterfield came back from being down 0-2 and finally secured the victory through Dallas's goal in the 90th minute. World class coaching! That was the thoughts of Cook when Dallas scored the winning goal after coming on as a substitute in the 67th minute.

Before that match, a win away at Dagenham & Redbridge.
