Chesterfield vs Stockport Predictions

• Stockport have won their last three league games
• Stockport have netted ten goals in four league games this season but have kept only one clean sheet in the process
• Chesterfield have scored in all three league matches this season, with both teams netting in two of those outings

Free-scoring Stockport may maintain winning run

Stockport have responded to their 1-0 defeat at Torquay on the opening day of the National League season with wins over Halifax, Dover and Wealdstone and they should be confident of recording more success on their trip to Chesterfield.

Stockport have strengthened their squad sufficiently and even at this early stage talks of promotion should not be dismissed lightly.

County have bolstered their firepower with the arrivals of Connor Jennings from Tranmere, Steveange’s Alex Reid and most notably Barrow’s John Rooney, who has hit the ground running with a brace against Dover and a hat-trick at Wealdstone.

With that quality, Stockport should be knocking on the door of promotion but they may not have things all their way at Chesterfield.

Jim Gannon’s side have conceded in three of their four league games and conceded twice in a 5-2 win at Wealdstone, who are bottom of the National League with only one point from their first three fixtures.

And Chesterfield have scored in all three games this season, with them firing four past Woking and netting consolations in defeats to Hartlepool and Torquay.

Both of their losses ended 2-1 and we predict the same scoreline here. Two exciting teams should put on a show but defensive flaws would appear their downfall.
