It may be a little early, but I'm already getting a bit excited tomorrow with the prospect of being on TV and I think the blues will beat a strong Gateshead side. Score: Chester FC 3-1 Gateshead Attendance: 2,246 (63 Gateshead)

Entirely depends on whether Sam Hughes partners Ryan Astles. If he goes for Hudson I can see only a draw at best. If he goes for Sam we'll win. I'll go 2-2. Can see only 1,600 bothering for this one with us in a dip.

Be disappointed if there's less than 2,200 in.

Gateshead are a decent team, but this is a game we need to get something from. Preferably win. The team has been playing well recently without much luck. We're due some, let's hope it's tomorrow. Pessimistically 1-1. Hopefully 2-0.

Nothing to worry about. Luke George was superb last week and Gateshead are the sort of side he he can really get his teeth into.

Be disappointed if there's less than 2,200 in. I believe it is now closer to 600. The idea of putting all of the kids and their families in the south stand is very purposeful too. Should look great on television having supporters behind both goals. Worth pointing out too, that thanks to Foot Golf Chester and Streetwise Sports, there will be lots of free activities for the kids to take part in pre-game. Jim Green and the Community Trust have worked hard to make all of this happen Chester FC
With the local football teams parading around the pitch at half time too, tomorrow will be a fantastic opportunity for us to showcase our credentials to a television audience. I implore everybody to do their bit in raising our profile, by sharing any news or information in the build up via their social media pages. Alan

Given suspensions etc. I'd go for: Roberts; Vassell, Hughes, Astles, Horwood; Durrell, Shaw, George (Lloyd if fit), Mahon, Alabi, Richards. If Richards is still ill then O'Brian and put Durrell up top.

If Richards is still ill then O'Brian and put Durrell up top. i would leave Mahon and Richards on the bench and start O'Brian and Durrell I don't think Mahon will be match fit after such a long layoff, he and Richards could come on in the second half if required.

Neil Aspin on Chester - If you look at Chester's record they've done well in terms of scoring goals. They've got various players who have chipped in with goals, obviously Alabi's done well up front, he's attracted a a little bit of interest from some other clubs, midfield players who like to get forward. All round they've got player who can cause you problems but it's the team ethic that's impressed me with Chester, they work well as a unit they've got a good spirit as a team, a few leaders in there. They've shown against a lot of teams they are more than a match for anyone in this league. I've been impressed with what they have done this year and a lot of the credit for that goes to their manager who's done a good job there.

If anyone is as observant as me there are new signs on the top of the south stand and new pitch boards.

Not a great record against these, but only Barnsley have beat us on TV. Poor results last 2 for us, but was at both and feel that we are still playing some decent stuff. Get tight again at the back and we will have a long duration win. COYB

Our better performances have been against teams above us so hopefully we can put on a show for the cameras, but I think it's important that we pick up the 3 points.
COYB's!

Their results are a bit up and down, I'll go 3 -1 if the guys put same sort of performance in as last week. Previous TV results will not affect this result, the starting line up, midfield battle and taking our chances will. Crowd 2100
Get at them boys,

Fancy us to win this one 2-1. Forget that it's on the TV (while it's nice to have a bit of national exposure) as that won't alter the result. We are due a win, and I think we'll manage to get the three points tomorrow. Crowd will be around 2,150 for this one hopefully (boosted by the 600 in the Clock End). Come on you Blues!
