Port Vale play host to Hereford United at Vale Park on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Valiants are clearly on top, having won 9 and lost only 3 of the 16 games.
The last time the two teams met at Port Vale was amazingly over twenty years ago, in November 1988, where the two sides shared the spoils courtesy of a 1-1 final scoreline in a (Associate Members) match.
