A home win is expected from this fixture if the league table is anything to judge by. The home fans are optimistic that the difference between 8th and 22nd place in the table will show on the pitch.
Stockport County and Chorley should both be in good shape for this meeting, as there's been enough days for both of them to train and rest since their last matches.
Stockport County form and stats
Stockport County have played 12 Vanarama National League games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 6-1-5 (wins-draws-losses).
Stockport County are returning here after visiting Torquay United in a Vanarama National League game and winning with a 5-1 scoreline. Ahead of that match, Stockport County lost 1-4 at home to Solihull Moors.
As mentioned above, Stockport County "killed" Torquay United in their previous game. They need to reset completely for this one and beware of complacency.
