Solihull Moors Preview – Can the Moors make it six wins on the spin?
Solihull Moors had an outstanding end to the National League season. After losing to eventual champions Stockport County in mid-April, Neal Ardley’s troops won five on the spin, seeing off Aldershot Town, Weymouth, Bromley, Dagenham & Redbridge and Boreham Wood.
The loss to Stockport remains the Moors’ only league defeat since January. Ardley’s boys are certainly the form side in the play-offs, and the West Midlands outfit will fancy their chances of boking their spot at Wembley.
Backed by their superb home support, can Solihull get the job done in this one-off semi this Sunday? The home side are priced at 6/5 to win in the 90.
Chesterfield Preview – Can Cook’s Spireites cause a play-off upset?
Chesterfield took the final play-off berth, ending the season with 74 points from 44 games. The Spireites picked up 20 wins, drew 14 times and suffered ten losses. Along the way, they scored 69 and shipped 51.
Chesterfield entered the play-offs in poor form, losing four of the last six regular season matches. After a 3-2 win over Dover, Paul Cook’s boys lost three and drew one. However, they beat Halifax Town away from home in a play-off quarter-final earlier in the week. Goals from Danny Rowe and Jeff King did the damage at The Shay.
