Chesterfield prepare to entertain Macclesfield Town at Recreation Ground on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Spireites are clearly on top, with a 57.14% success rate in the fixture.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Recreation Ground was less than a year ago, in December 2008, as the visitors ran out cosy 2-4 winners in a League Two match.

FootyMad's prediction ...
Its not been a very profitable last few weeks for Chesterfield, and I'm afraid the Footymad team cannot see it getting too much better here. Look no further than honours being even at the end of this one. No-score draw
