Recent respective form guides
Chesterfield's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While Spireites have scored 6, a worringly large 10 have been leaked at the other end.
Bournemouth's away form is none too clever either, with a marvellous return of five wins and one defeat from the last six. The games have constituted a decent return of 11 goals for the Cherries, and 10 goals against.
Chesterfield find themselves struggling down in 16th position in the league having picked up 53 points from their 42 matches. Bournemouth lie just outside the playoff positions in the Coca-Cola League One, picking up 66 from their 42 games so far.
