Stockport edged past Swindon at County Ground last weekend courtesy of Ryan Croasdale’s lone goal ten minutes from time. It was Dave Challinor’s side’s 18th league-win of the season. The Hatters have lost just one of their last 12 games in the League Two. Stockport have been pretty solid at the back since the turn of the year, conceding just one goal in their last five outings. Meanwhile, the Hatters’ home form in the fourth tier has been impressive this term, collecting a 34 points from a possible 57 in front of their own supporters.
Salford, on the other hand, have been very good on the road, recording nine wins and three draws from 16 away games in the League Two, the third best record of any side in the fourth tier. Last time out, the Ammies defeated Stevenage at Broadhall Way courtesy of second half efforts from Stevie Mallan, Callum Hendry and Matt Smith. It was Salford’s fourth win from their last six games, and 18th fourth tier victory of the campaign. Meanwhile, the Ammies have scored 60 goals in the League Two this season so far, the most by any team in the fourth tier.
