Recent respective form guides
Mansfield Town's woeful home form means they have chalked up just a single victory, with 5 defeats, from the last six. While Stags have scored 5, a worringly large 12 have been leaked at the other end.
Morecambe's away form is none too clever either, winning and losing 3 each of the last six games. A generous 7 goals have been both scored and conceded in this period.
Mansfield Town are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 25 points from 28 matches. Morecambe's 47 points from 31 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 10th position.
