Recent respective form guides
Port Vale's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While Valiants have scored 7, a worringly large 13 have been leaked at the other end.
Exeter City's away form is none too clever either, tasting just one defeat in their last six, and picking up four good wins. The games have constituted a decent return of 12 goals for the Grecians, and 6 goals against.
Port Vale see themselves just below half way in the Coca-Cola League Two, showing a record of 13 points from their 11 games played so far, Exeter City's total of 18 points from their 11 games sees them sitting in the playoff places in Coca-Cola League Two.

Nothing seems to be going right for the Valiants at home recently, and I can see no immediate turn around in fortunes as the Grecians come away with an easy victory. Away win
