Tuesday 6th August 2019

Match Preview

It was a disappointing first home game of the season for Chesterfield as they blew a one-goal lead in the final 13 minutes to lose against the hugely unfancied Dover Athletic.

Scott Boden had given the home side the lead after 71 minutes, but within six minutes Dover were level. Alfie Pavey scored his first of the game after 77 minutes before he pounced seven minutes later to score the match-winning goal.

It wasn't the start to the season that Chesterfield were hoping for, and expectations among fans had them among the favourites for a promotion challenge.

Last season was their first appearance at this level in the club's history, but they struggled throughout the season and had to settle for a 14th place finish; 15 points outside of playoff contention.

John Sheridan was quick to apologise to fans after the game, but he was also keen to acknowledge that his new signings put in a strong first showing for their new club. Liam Mandeville and Anthony Spyrou both made their league debuts in the defeat and were arguably the best performers in the opening day defeat.

Mandeville had joined the club on a free transfer from Doncaster Rovers, while Spyrou had agreed to join the club on a season-long loan from Premier League new boys Norwich City.

Both players had excited the Chesterfield fans throughout pre-season as the duo played above themselves against established opposition such as Sheffield United and Burton Albion. In the opener, they played well, and that will be something that fans will be keen to take away from the defeat.

Chesterfield will get an immediate chance to fight back as they travel to Maidenhead on the first round of midweek games in the National League.

The Magpies enjoyed a much better start to the season as they ran out 1-0 winners against Stockport, and in truth, they were a lot more comfortable than the scoreline suggests. They dominated the possession throughout the game, but Stockport's best chances in the game came through counter-attacks, which may be something that Chesterfield may look to utilise.

The only goal of the game was scored ten minutes from time by Jake Cassidy, and the win leaves them as one of the ten sides to taste victory on the opening weekend of the season.

Head to Head

This will only be the third occasion that these two sides have met since Chesterfield were only relegated into the National League for the first time at the end of the 2017-18 season.

However, the head to head record doesn't make for good reading for the ex-Football League side. They have lost both previous fixtures against their opponents on Tuesday. They lost the home game between the teams 3-1 in September last year, before also losing the return leg at Maidenhead 2-0.

Prediction

Some fans would be surprised to hear that bookmakers make Chesterfield the narrow 7/5 favourites to win away from home.

Maidenhead can be found at 19/10, while the draw is 9/4 (Source: https://compareyourodds.com/football/england/national-league).

Judging by their contrasting starts to the season it would be incredibly hard to see Maidenhead losing the game, and that is especially the case when you study Chesterfield's recent form over pre-season.

They haven't won since a narrow 2-1 win over Matlock Town in the middle of July. However, they have scored in all but one of their fixtures since then; with the one exception being in their 5-0 defeat against Sheffield United.

The threat that Chesterfield have in attacking areas means that they will probably score, but their defensive frailties mean that Maidenhead will probably get chances of their own, and it would be incredibly difficult not to see them take at least one of these chances should it fall to their attackers in form.

The 'both teams to score' price of 17/20 seems like the safest bet for punters.
