Crawley Town vs Chesterfield, 10 October 2026, League Two: form, head-to-head and match facts

Crawley Town host Chesterfield in what promises to be a decisive clash for both sides. The hosts sit precariously at 23rd with just four points from six games – a solitary win and a draw offset by four defeats and a 6‑11 goal deficit – while Chesterfield sit comfortably in 12th, having amassed eight points from two victories, two draws and two losses, their goals for and against balanced at eight each. The gap in points and form means Crawley will need to tighten up defensively and find a way to convert the few chances they create if they are to avoid slipping further down the table. For Chesterfield, a positive result would not only extend their unbeaten run to three games but also keep them within striking distance of the playoff places. The head‑to‑head history offers little comfort to the home side, as they will be looking to reverse a trend that has seen them struggle against mid‑table opposition this season.
