Exeter City face a trip to Halifax Town at The Shay on Saturday afternoon, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Grecians will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them lose 11 and win only 4 of the 19 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in March 2007, the Shaymen carving out a narrow 2 - 1 victory in a Conference match.
