Itr's a cold one at the Deva today.
Chester FC play host to Aldershot Town looking to keep their faint National League survival hopes alive.
This week saw former manager Neil Young return to the club in an advisory capacity to Marcus Bignot, and he is here today to try and aid the Blues cause against a Shots side who were humbled 7-1 at AFC Fylde and will be looking to bounce back.
We will have all the action as it happens.
Full time: Chester 0 Aldershot Town 0
Excellent defensive display and some fine goalkeeping from Andy Firth earn the Blues a point against the promotion chasers.
First effort on target
Great Chester chance. White in space on left and he cuts in and shoots low but Cole keeps it out and Halls can’t turn in rebound.
Great save - again!
Fenelon first time effort from eight yards is parried away by the excellent Firth.
Offside
McClure nets and looks a mile offside, runs over to celebrate in front of linesman whose flag remained down. Flag is raised eventually. Offside.
Good save
Oyeleke cuts inside and fires a shot away from 20 yards but Firth does well to push it away.
Half time: Chester 0 Aldershot Town 0
Shots the better side but a pretty turgid game all round so far.
Pressure
Aldershot really turning the screw now. Finding gaps in behind and getting crosses into the box. Chester not creating anything.
What a save!
What a save from Andy Firth. Low cross in finds McClure who looks to fire home from close range but Chester keeper turns it onto post.
Comes to nothing
Blues corner comes in from Roberts but can’s find Astles at the back post.
Tough conditions
Snow swirling around the stadium now. Shots coming into this. Cross finds Fenelon at the far post but he totally mis-kicks it. Weather plays its part.
Held
Kinsella low strike from 18 yards is saved low by Andy Firth. Shots dangerous on the quick break.
Cleared
McClure gets in behind and his cross is pushed away by Firth before being hacked away by Roberts.
