Salford vs ChesterfieldPrediction, probable lineups, recent form & season stats

Salford City start round two after losing their opening fixture 1-3 on the road, one goal scored and three conceded, no points on the board and twentieth place. Chesterfield had an equally flat first day out, beaten 0-1 at their own ground, which leaves them empty-handed in seventeenth. Between them the two clubs managed a single goal in the opening round, against a League Two scoring rate of 2.42 goals per game so far. The Peninsula Stadium hosts Salford City's first home fixture of the season and Chesterfield's first away trip, so both the home and the away columns still read zero. The prediction may change in the hours before kick-off. Confirmed line-ups, late injuries, suspensions, rotation ahead of other fixtures and the state of the pitch and the weather can all alter the picture described above. In those cases the selection may be reviewed and updated within 12 to 24 hours of the match: this happens rarely, but when it does, the version published on this page is always the current one.
