Salford left their playoff push a little too late and their top-six hopes are all but over even after a good recent run.

The Ammies have lost just two of their last 16 League Two matches, but they are likely to face a tough test against Mansfield. 

The Stags are in the promotion picture and need a win to keep their dreams of League One football alive.

Nigel Clough’s men held their nerve to beat Stevenage last week and that win followed a 2-0 victory over Crawley.

Mansfield have won six of their last ten fourth-tier matches, and although their efforts away from home haven’t been quite as strong as their Field Mill results, they look decent value to win at Salford.
