对于弗利特伍德来说,立即重返甲级联赛的任何希望似乎都已经破灭了,他发现自己排名第16位,与进入周末季后赛一样接近乙级降级区,各得8分。
兰开夏郡的竞争对手Accrington Stanley也加入了他们的行列,他们在周末以4分落后于Cod Army,只差4分就进入了下降区。
因此,双方都迫切希望赢得周一的比赛,而不仅仅是为了吹牛,每支球队都迫切需要状态的好转
弗利特伍德可能在积分榜上排名更高,但他们的两项最新成绩并没有激发他们支持这场比赛的信心,查理·亚当的球队在主场以4比2被唐卡斯特击败,然后在客场以3比1输给了其他奋斗者斯温顿。
仅从胜利的角度来看,他们就值得避免,因为他们在过去的八场联赛主场比赛中只赢了一场,这只会进一步挫伤人们的热情。
然而,他们在海布里至少打了五场比赛,和东道主一样,从获胜的角度来看,阿灵顿也没有多大吸引力。
斯坦利在过去的七场联赛中只赢了一场,上一次输给了升级的布罗姆利,这表明兰开夏郡德比的成功也不太可能被他们击败,这使得平局成为一场巨大的胜利。

外文原文如下:
Any hope of an immediate return to League One seems to have already faded for Fleetwood, who find themselves 16th and as close to the League Two relegation zone as they are to the playoffs heading into the weekend’s fixtures, sitting eight points off each.
They are joined towards the bottom by their Lancashire rivals Accrington Stanley, who entered the weekend four points behind the Cod Army and just four clear of the drop zone.
Therefore, both sides will be desperate to win Monday’s clash and not just for bragging rights, with each team in dire need of an upturn in form.
Fleetwood may be higher in the table, but their two latest results do nothing to inspire confidence in backing them for this clash, with Charlie Adam’s side being routed 4-2 at home by Doncaster before a 3-1 away defeat at fellow strugglers Swindon.
They are worth avoiding from a win perspective on that evidence alone, with the fact they have won just one of their last eight League Two home games only further tempering enthusiasm.
However, they have at least drawn five of those games at Highbury and, like the hosts, Accrington do not make much appeal from a win perspective either.
Stanley have won just one of their last seven league games and a loss to promoted Bromley last time suggests a Lancashire derby success is also unlikely to fall their way, making the draw a huge runner.

Draw 1-1
