Chesterfield vs Tranmere Predictions

• Chesterfield beat York 2-0 in their last home games
• Tranmere are winless on their travels (D3, L1)
• Rovers have failed to score in their last two trips

Spireites and Tranmere meet in early kick off

Chesterfield entertain Tranmere Rovers in League Two on Saturday in the solitary early kick off in the EFL.

These sides are level on 11 points and Tranmere have perhaps exceeded expectations after a dismal end to the previous campaign, whereas Chesterfield may be a bit disappointed with their own start having been rated as promotion hopefuls.

The Spireites failed to win any of their first three home league games but an impressive 2-0 win over York in their last outing at SMH Group Stadium. That victory could be the start of a run at home and the visit of a Tranmere side who are yet to win away looks a good opportunity to record consecutive victories in Derbyshire.

Chesterfield are clear favourites to win and the best angle is backing the hosts to win without conceding, as Rovers have failed to score in their last two league trips and they’ve managed just seven goals in total across their last nine competitive away games stretching back into last season.

Goals could be at a premium in general as Chesterfield have scored a modest 10 goals in eight league games so far and Tranmere have been fairly strong at the back with three clean sheets in their last five games across all competitions. One goal may be enough to settle this so a 1-0 Spireites win seems a reasonable correct score prediction.
