Port Vale and Fleetwood Town are set to go head-to-head at Vale Park stadium in Stoke-on-Trent this Saturday, October 14th at 14:00 UTC as they battle for the top spot in the England League One. E. Chislett will be looking to carry momentum from the last match in which he scored two goals in Port Vale's 3-2 victory in the Carling Cup on August 8th. The weather forecast promises up to 49° F with patchy rain, so make sure to dress appropriately and get there early to cheer on your favorite team in what promises to be an amazing match!
Port Vale come into this game with a fully fit and healthy squad, despite some unfortunate losses in their last five matches. However, they will be hoping to redeem themselves, taking advantage of striker B. Garrity's four goals this season, and their 3-2 victory against this very same opposing team back in August. Despite the historically poor goal scoring form, optimism will be high as Port Vale seek to turn their fortunes around and bring home a much-needed win.
With their current away record in mind, Fleetwood Town will be aiming to reverse their fortunes when they face Peterborough United in their next game, searching for a much needed victory to continue their ascendancy up the league table.
