Match Facts
Salford City have won just one of their four Football League games against Morecambe (D1 L2), whilst they’ve never kept an EFL clean sheet against the Shrimps.
Morecambe have failed to win any of their last five away league games against sides from Greater Manchester (D2 L3), failing to keep a clean sheet during this run.
Salford City have lost just one of their last five home league games played over a weekend (W2 D2), though that sole defeat did come in their last such match in a 2-0 defeat to Gillingham.
Morecambe are unbeaten across their last five away league games played on a Saturday (W4 D1), the Shrimps’ longest such run since a streak of six such undefeated matches between August and October 2015.
