Its time for our weekly look at the form of the opposition and with Crewe next up there looks as if their will be a few goals. Thus far this season they have scored 77 and conceded 60 proving Dario Grady’s sides are nothing if not entertaining. They beat Cheltenham 8-1 in their last home game, Barnet 7-0 and drew 5-5 with leaders Chesterfield in an incredible game of two halves. Those Imps travelling should take heart that Hereford have trounced them 6-2.
In all seriousness this is a tough game which could well lead to an avalanche with both Miller and Donaldson getting hat tricks in the last home game. Barnet however beat them 2-1 last time out suggesting that consistency is what has them stuck in mid table.
