  • Onto the game...

Four points from the last two games has seen Stevenage consoldiate their place inside the top 10 with just eight games to go in the season. The Play-Offs are currently five points away, with upcoming fixtures against the bottom two coming up.

Macclesfield are in desperate need of the three points themselves, sat three points away from safety but with a game in-hand over their closes rivals.

Last Saturday's victory over fellow strugglers Yeovil Town was their first in eight games and has given themselves a great chance now following Sol Campbell's appointment in November.

The former England defender has certainly helped the cause, marooned adrift by seven points adrift when he first took over to now be potentially just one win away from leaving the relegation zone.

  • Team News...

Aside from Terence Vancooten who is away on International Duty with French Guyana and long-term absentees Danny Newton and Jamal Campbell-Ryce who are out with injury, Manager Dino Maamria has an almost full squad to select from.

  • Officials...
