MATCH PREVIEW | Chester vs AFC Fylde
AFC Fylde are the visitors to the Deva Stadium this Bank Holiday weekend as the Blues look to get back to winning ways.
A home game against Hereford and a trip to Peterborough Sports have brought consecutive defeats, but positives came from the home encounter while decisions went against the Blues on the road.
Visitors Fylde are seen by many as the title favourites, and have re-signed their record goalscorer Danny Rowe on loan from Chesterfield this week. The Coasters have had a mixed start to the season, with wins over Kettering and Farsley, and defeats against Banbury and Scarborough.
Kick off on Saturday afternoon is 3pm.
