Footymad preview History of the Chesterfield v Exeter City fixture

Exeter City face a trip to Chesterfield at Whittington Moor on Saturday afternoon, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Grecians will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them lose 12 and win only 4 of the 19 games.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Whittington Moor was just last season, in January 2012, as the visitors ran out cosy 0-2 winners in a League One match.
