An important duel in the bottom section of the league table, with both teams experiencing more worry than joy. This match is a classic “six-pointer” with the home team placed 18th and the visitors in 24th place.
There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
Chesterfield form and stats
When playing at home in the Vanarama National League, Chesterfield have managed 3 wins, 2 draws and suffered 4 defeats from 9 games.
The home team returns to Proact Stadium after sharing the points with Ebbsfleet United (placed 22nd) on their last time out; the Vanarama National League game ended 2-2. Before that, Chesterfield had a home game versus Notts County which ended with a victory 1-0.
The hosts are favourites to win this game, with an estimated chance of about 55-60% of that outcome. Earlier Chesterfield matches with similar probabilities have ended with 1 win, 0 draws and 1 defeat (from two games).
Chesterfield has scored 12 league goals at home this season, in 9 matches. On the other hand, Chesterfield have conceded 13 goals.
Chorley form and stats
There's been little loot from Chorley's travels as they have only collected 6 points from 10 away games in the Vanarama National League. Chorley, who have the fewest scored goals (14) in Vanarama National League, only have 0 wins to counter their 4 defeats and 6 draws. The sun doesn’t shine and the birds do not sing for Chorley, who have now gone ten games without a victory. The Stockport County game was their last win and it’s been a dry spell since. The loyal fans travelling with their beloved Chorley have enjoyed the stadium food more than the matches as the visitors have gone 13 consecutive matches without winning on the road. The last time three points were secured away was the Boston United game.
Two away games in a row for Chorley, who will hope to get a better result in this one after losing 0-1 versus Mansfield Town in the FA Cup. Preceding that game, the 1-2 loss visiting Barnet's place.
As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Chorley playing away, we found three games. Results were 0 away wins, 3 draws and 0 home wins.
The visitors have scored 6 goals from 10 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. In the opposite end, Chorley have conceded 16 goals in their away games.
