Recent respective form guides
Port Vale's woeful home form means they have chalked up just a single victory, with 5 defeats, from the last six. While Valiants have scored 6, a worringly large 14 have been leaked at the other end.
Morecambe's away form is none too clever either, collecting just 4 draws from the last six contests. While the Shrimps have hit 5 goals, 12 have hit the back of the wrong net.
Port Vale find themselves struggling down in 16th position in the league having picked up 13 points from their 12 matches. Morecambe are currently lying in 20th place in Coca-Cola League Two having mustered a points tally of 9 from their 12 matches played.
