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 12 have been leaked at the other end.
Chesterfield's away form is none too clever either, tasting just one defeat in their last six, and picking up four good wins. Those games have seen the Spireites pummel 13 goals, and let in 6.
Accrington S. see themselves just below half way in the Coca-Cola League Two, showing a record of 23 points from their 19 games played so far, Chesterfield's total of 31 points from their 18 games sees them sitting in the playoff places in Coca-Cola League Two.
