Chesterfield will look to bounce back from a 4-1 loss to Gillingham when they face Harrogate in the League Two round 5. The Spireites are after their fourth win of the season and they are seen as favourites to pick up all three points from Saturday’s encounter. Bear in mind, though, that all Berry-McNally, Butterfield, Dibley-Dias, Donacien, Tanton, and Williams have been struggling with injuries of late.
The Sulphurites, on the other hand, aim to build on a hard-fought 1-0 win over Barrow. As Chesterfield suit Harrogate, we are tempted to place our bets on the underdogs this time out. You should know that Harrogate have defeated Chesterfield in four of their last five meetings in all competitions. Speaking of the home team, both Bennett and Sutton are expected to miss out with injuries, while midfielder George Thomson is on the verge of leaving the club.
