FT: Accrington Stanley 2 v 3 Chesterfield: LIVE UPDATES (3pm)

Stanley’s pre-season results

So far they have beaten Warrington Town 3-2 and Clitheroe 3-1 and drawn 2-2 with Blackburn Rovers.

Today’s opponents

Accrington were relegated from League One last season after five years in the division.

They finished second from bottom but were only two points away from safety.

The centre-back has been suffering with a strained calf so it remains to be seen if he will play today.

It’s nothing serious so he should be back soon even if he does not feature this afternoon.

We should see trialist keeper Ryan Boot in action again today.

The 28-year-old, who has officially left Solihull Moors, came on in the second-half against Derby County on Wednesday night.

Chesterfield make the trip to Accrington Stanley today for their sixth pre-season friendly.

Stay tuned for all the key points from the game.
