Chesterfield welcome Yeovil Town to the Technique Stadium on Saturday 7 November, with kick-off at 3pm UK, in the 1st Round of the FA Cup. Chesterfield play in League Two and Yeovil in the National League, one division below. Yeovil needed a replay to get past Leatherhead in the previous round, drawing 3-3 away and then winning the replay 5-2.
Chesterfield are 1.45 favourites at bet365, with the draw at 4.75 and Yeovil out at 6.00 at midnite.
Chesterfield's last five matches were all in League Two and brought one win, two draws and two defeats. They drew 2-2 at Crawley, lost 1-0 at Port Vale, drew 1-1 at home to Colchester, then beat Crewe 5-1 at home. Their most recent game was a 4-1 defeat at Newport on 30 October. Across their last ten matches they have won four, drawn three and lost three.
Both teams scored in four of those last five Chesterfield matches, and three of the five had three goals or more. Chesterfield failed to score only once in the run, at Port Vale, and they scored nine and conceded nine in total. Their two home games in that spell were the 1-1 draw with Colchester and the 5-1 win over Crewe, and they are at home again here.
Yeovil have scored 11 and conceded 10 in their last five matches. Their 3-3 draw at Leatherhead in the previous round was followed by a 5-2 win in the replay on 20 October. In the National League they have since lost 2-1 at home to Altrincham, won 2-1 at AFC Hornchurch, and then gone down 2-0 at Halifax Town on 31 October.
Yeovil have won six of their last ten matches, drawn two and lost two. Both teams scored in four of their last five, and four of the five produced three goals or more, the exception being the 2-0 defeat at Halifax.
Chesterfield possible starting lineup:
Hemming; Hutton, Simpson, Pond, Pearce; McEachran, Mandeville, Marsh; Markanday, Koroma, Bonis
Yeovil Town possible starting lineup:
Barker; Davies, Kingdon, Gubbins, Naylor; Muller, Jones, Westbrooke; Powell, Daly, Spasov
Lee Bonis, Liam Mandeville and Dilan Markanday are in the predicted attacking line for Chesterfield, who scored five against Crewe on 24 October and then lost 4-1 at Newport six days later.
For Yeovil, James Daly and Slavi Spasov are in the predicted front line of a side that has scored in four of its last five matches, with the Halifax defeat the exception. Yeovil scored three in the first Leatherhead tie and five in the replay, so they arrive having scored eight goals in their two most recent cup games.
Chesterfield are 1.45 favourites with bet365, the draw is 4.75 and Yeovil are 6.00 with midnite. Both teams to score is 1.67 and over 2.5 goals is 1.53, both with bet365, and over 1.5 goals is 1.14 with bet365.
