Chesterfield vs Stockport Predictions
- Both teams have scored in five of the last six Chesterfield matches.
- Both teams have scored in three of the last six Stockport County away league games.
- Stockport County have lost their last three away games in all competitions and four of six overall.
Hard to back Hatters on current form
Wobbly Chesterfield can give a good account of themselves on Bank Holiday Monday against leaders Stockport – for whom this may not be the biggest game of the week. Dave Challinor’s side travel over the border to Wrexham to take on their nearest challengers for the National League title on Sunday and may see that as the match they must not lose.
The Hatters had been in the winning habit and would have been strong fancies to get three points in Derbyshire had it not been for some recent slip-ups of their own. At Grimsby and Yeovil, Stockport’s fate was sealed once they had been reduced to ten men, but discipline hasn’t generally been a problem for Challinor.
Saturday’s loss at home to Boreham Wood leaves a few questions hanging over them and, even though they almost equalised in stoppage time, we can’t support them at the odds-on price here.
Spirited Spireites could just edge this
They know what sort of welcome they will get from a Chesterfield side that have racked up 88 yellow and three red cards this season to sit fourth-bottom of the National League Fair Play table, so it could be a tasty encounter.
We’re expecting a blood and thunder clash here that should lead to plenty of goalmouth incident and chances to score – akin to the 2-2 draw at Edgeley Park this season which the Spireites lost a grip of once Jeff King had received his marching orders. Both teams to score looks a good bet here given four of the last five Chesterfield games and three of the last six County away clashes have seen the wager land.
A feeling that Stockport have lost their invincibility cloak and that Chesterfield may have more on the line in this fixture leads us to conclude that a 2-1 home victory is worth supporting in correct score markets.
