Recent respective form guides

Macclesfield Town's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While The Silkmen have scored 5, a worringly large 8 have been leaked at the other end.

Morecambe's away form is none too clever either, unbeaten in their last six, consisting of three wins and three draws. The games have constituted a decent return of 8 goals for the Shrimps, and 5 goals against.

Macclesfield are currently lying in 20th place in Coca-Cola League Two having mustered a points tally of 43 from their 42 matches played. Morecambe's 56 points from 41 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 12th position.
