Chesterfield are woeful away from home and have only picked up 6 points (1 win and 3 draws) on their travels. It's the worst away record in the league.

They are also bottom of the defence tables - with 46 goals conceded overall. Away they concede at an average of 2.25 goals per game and have had a few hammerings (1-5, 1-5, 1-4) although haven't conceded more than 2 goals against the top 10 home or away, suggesting a more defensive approach against the better teams:

They do score goals away from home and have scored in 75% of their away matches but if we do go a goal down don't be too alarmed - they have been ahead on 7 occasions and conceded equalisers in 6 of those games, only hanging onto their lead against Crawley.

Despite their poor goals conceded record, they are pretty tight in the first half of games and then concede a huge amount in the 2nd half of games. 74% of their away goals are conceded in the 2nd half:

Everything indicates they will park the bus so expect a typical City performance, frustrating first half trying to break them down before exploiting the space in the 2nd. If we manage to grab an early goal, expect a very open game.

Shame, we really could have done with him. I suppose he won't play against Stoke either?

Bench looks very weak, no one there that could really come on and change a game, but not surprising really given the horrendous injury problems we have

The ref is Trevor kettle, when have we had him before? Name rings a bell which usually means they weren't good.

Yep, but still expect him to have few interventions today and to see the headline 'Kettle chips in.'

Now that Biamou is playing, I believe the Arbroath v Bon Accord record score could be in jeapordy...

Pitch looks very threadbare in places on iFollow. How does it look to those that are there?
