Chesterfield vs Rochdale preview - No new worries for Spireites



Posted Friday, August 21, 2015 by PA

Chesterfield have no new problems as they prepare to host Rochdale.

Recent signings Lee Novak, who made his first appearance for the club in the defeat at Sheffield United last weekend, and Angel Martinez, who went straight into the team for the win at Shrewsbury on Tuesday night, are in line to make their home debuts for the Spireites.

Following the victory at Greenhous Meadow, manager Dean Saunders is likely to keep any changes to a minimum - although winger Gboly Ariyibi is one of the players pushing for a recall.

Striker Mani Dieseruvwe remains unavailable as he serves the final game of a three-match suspension.

Rochdale boss Keith Hill also has no new injury concerns for the trip, but he could be tempted to freshen up his attack.

Hill was critical of his forward line following Tuesday's 2-1 home defeat to Walsall, claiming his strikers are "making mistakes" and have "got to score more"

The Dale chief was also less than impressed with the performance of his players in a behind-closed-doors friendly with Burnley in midweek and is now looking to move three players out and bring three in, although he admitted new faces are unlikely before the weekend.

Hill was quick to praise opponents Chesterfield, telling Dale PlayerHD: "They have had two really, really good results and are finding their feet again."
