Recent respective form guides

Accrington Stanley's woeful home form means they have chalked up just a single victory, with 5 defeats, from the last six. While The Reds have scored 6, a worringly large 11 have been leaked at the other end.

Chester City's away form is none too clever either, accumulating just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While the Blues have hit 7 goals, 13 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Accrington S. see themselves just below half way in the Coca-Cola League Two, showing a record of 32 points from their 24 games played so far, Chester City's 35 points from 23 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 10th position.
