Recent respective form guides
Bury's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While The Shakers have scored 10, a worringly large 15 have been leaked at the other end.
Morecambe's away form is none too clever either, coming away with three points on 3 occasions, but drawing 1 and losing 2. Only 5 goals have been registered in this time, with 6 leaked at the wrong end.
Bury are currently lying in 20th place in Coca-Cola League Two having mustered a points tally of 36 from their 35 matches played. Morecambe's 50 points from 34 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 10th position.
