Match Preview
Sheridan to keep the faith? Chesterfield manager John Sheridan could name the same starting line-up for his side's home clash with Morecambe. Sheridan has no new injury or suspension problems as the Spireites return to the b2net Stadium following four away matches. Central defender Simon Ford could be available after missing the midweek win at Bradford due to a knock, with midfielder Danny Whitaker set to continue at the heart of defence if he fails to make it. Midfield pair Dwayne Mattis (calf) and Mark Allott (ankle) have both stepped up their rehabilitation, but are not ready to return. Long-term absentee Dean Morgan has also returned to training after sustaining a foot injury on New Year's Day. Sheridan's side have lost only one of their last 15 league games and are nine points clear at the top of the table. Morecambe boss Sammy McIlroy could wield the axe when his faltering side travel to Derbyshire. The Shrimps were soundly beaten 2-0 at Macclesfield on Tuesday and have now gone nine matches without a win. After seeing his side thumped 3-0 at home by Oxford last weekend, McIlroy made two changes to the starting line-up for the trip to Moss Rose in midweek. Chris McCready and Scott Brown came into the side at the expense of Kieran Charnock and Jimmy Spencer, while winger Chris Shuker has missed the last four games with a hamstring injury. McIlroy will now consider his options as he bids to engineer an upturn in fortunes, but he admitted: "We've got a battle to stay in League Two."

Match Report
Shrimps cause upset Morecambe upset the form book as they deservedly won 2-0 at League Two leaders Chesterfield. Goals in each half from ex-Chesterfield midfielder Kevan Hurst and Danny Carlton secured the visitors' first away victory since early January. Morecambe had not won in nine games but they stunned the home fans in the 22nd minute when Hurst scored against one of his former clubs. The midfielder marked his return to the club he had three loan spells with by firing a low 25-yard drive just inside a post in the 22nd minute. Chesterfield failed to make any sort of impact in the first half and they did not improve after the break when the visitors increased their lead as Carlton hooked a volley from 12 yards for his first goal of the season. Craig Davies and Scott Boden had late chances for Chesterfield, who failed to score at home for the first time this season.
