STOCKPORT COUNTY Coca-Cola League Two Tomorrow, 3pm Saunders Honda Stadium

WITH the Blues reeling from nine defeats in their last 10 League Two matches, they cannot afford to slip further towards the relegation trap door when they take on Jim Gannon's improving Hatters.

Form: Saturday's 3-2 home defeat to Lincoln City brought an abrupt halt to Stockport's encouraging five-match unbeaten run.

One to watch: Enjoying a new lease of life under new manager Jim Gannon, ADAM LE FONDRE has rediscovered his scoring touch. The 19-year-old has netted four goals this season, including a crucial equaliser in last month's 1-1 draw with Torquay.

Last meeting: The two sides drew 0-0 at Edgeley Park earlier this season, but you have to go back much further to find Stockport's last visit to the Saunders Honda Stadium. Gary Shelton's goal gave Chester a 1-0 win in front of 2,400 fans in November 1994.

Betting (bet365.com): Chester evens, Stockport 9/4, Draw 12/5. First goalscorer (selected): Gregg Blundell 4/1, Ryan Lowe 5/1, Tes Bramble 7/1, Adam Le Fondre 9/1.
