After first day nerves destroyed Chesterfield's chances of kicking the new season off with a bang, the Spireites now face second place Hartlepool United on Saturday at Warminster Road.

For many, it will be their first ever home match at the Sheffield based venue, as all of Chesterfield's pre season games were played on foreign soil.

Last season's replayed fixture ended in a Spireite victory with Chris Tingay scoring the only goal of the game.

Although, this time round Tingay will have to watch form the sidelines as he misses his second consecutive league match. Centre half Sandy Moller and first year scholar Jordan Edridge also miss the game due to injury, with striker Ben Watkis doubtful.

Hartlepool finished up last season just two places above bottom side Boston United, but started this season with a nine goal thriller against the Stags and came out victorious.

Saturday's match is scheduled for a later time of 12 noon at Warminster Road.
