Chesterfield are set to face Crewe Alexandra in an EFL Trophy clash on Tuesday night, with the Spireites looking to build on their strong start to the League Two season. The Railwaymen, who won the EFL Trophy in 2013, have experienced a dip in form lately, suffering defeats to Gillingham and Swindon Town. Chesterfield, on the other hand, have won four and lost just one of their opening six league matches, with Dylan Duffy enjoying a productive start to the season, scoring twice and providing three assists. The Spireites will be looking to avoid a repeat of their 4-1 defeat to Gillingham on August 19, and will be boosted by the return of Harry McKirdy, who bagged a first-half brace for the Red Devils at SMH Group Stadium on Saturday. Crewe Alexandra have made a positive start to their promotion push, despite a worrying drop in form over the past week, and will be looking to replicate the heroics of their predecessors, who won the EFL Trophy back in 2013 courtesy of a 2-0 victory over Southend United at Wembley Stadium. The Railwaymen have shared goalscoring responsibility around their ranks, with Calum Agius, Conor Thomas, and Reece Hutchinson all netting twice in League Two. Chesterfield's recent form has been impressive, with the Spireites earning four points across two games against Harrogate Town and recently-relegated Crawley Town to conclude August. The match promises to be an exciting encounter, with both teams looking to build on their strong starts to the season. And with the Spireites seeking a top-two spot in League Two, they will be looking to take all three points from the match. But Crewe Alexandra will not make it easy for them, with the Railwaymen looking to bounce back from their recent defeats. So the stage is set for a thrilling encounter between two teams with promotion ambitions. The match will take place at Mornflake Stadium on Tuesday night, with the winner looking to take a step closer to EFL Trophy glory. Chesterfield's manager, Paul Cook, will be looking to make some key decisions ahead of the match, with the Spireites looking to build on their strong start to the season. The team's recent performances have been impressive, with the Spireites showing a lot of spirit and determination. And with the match against Crewe Alexandra just around the corner, the Spireites will be looking to make a statement and show that they are a force to be reckoned with in League Two.
