History of the Stockport County v Chesterfield fixture

Chesterfield pack their bags to visit Stockport County at Edgeley Park on Tuesday evening, and have come away with little in previous meetings, having been beaten a depressing 30 out of 46 times.

The previous match played between the two at Edgeley Park was within the last three years, in January 2008, where the two teams cancelled each other out in an enthralling 2 - 2 draw in a League Two match.

Recent respective form guides

Stockport County's disastrous home run has meant they have managed only 2 draws from the last six matches. While Hatters have scored 10, a worringly large 22 have been leaked at the other end.

Chesterfield's away form is none too clever either, with 3 victories and just 1 loss from the last six. The games have constituted a decent return of 10 goals for the Spireites, and 7 goals against.

Stockport Co. find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 28 games have yielded only 24 points. Chesterfield are leading the way in the Npower League Two, with their 26 games giving them a return of 53 points.
