7th placed Chesterfield have had an excellent campaign in League Two 2025/2026 and have accumulated 73 points from 44 games. Paul Cook’s men have built their success upon the foundations of a high-pressing, possession based system which was instilled by the manager since taking over in February 2022.
Chesterfield play a 4-2-3-1 system which is often operated with a ‘Number 10’ and they’ve had success by getting the ball wide and attacking down the wings before playing the ball in behind. The Spireites are a team that are strong on the counter-attack and they tend to press their opponents high up the field to try and win the ball back in an effort to disrupt their opponents. However, their forward line has often been their undoing and they’ll need to have their game plan on point on Saturday if they are to avoid the threat of top goalscorer Josh March, as our Chesterfield vs Crewe Alexandra prediction suggests a high-scoring encounter.
