Exeter City play host to Tranmere Rovers at St James' Park on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Grecians are clearly on top, winning 53.85% of the games played between the two.
The last time the two teams met at Exeter City was well over fifteen years ago, back in October 1990, when they played out a goalless draw in a Third Division match.

Recent respective form guides
Exeter City have only collected 1 win and 3 draws from the last six home games played. While Grecians have scored 6, a worringly large 11 have been leaked at the other end.
Tranmere Rvs.'s away form is none too clever either, accumulating just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. Rovers have conceded 12 goals in these games, and only hit 3 in reply.
Exeter City are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 6 points from 7 matches. Tranmere Rvs. are stuck down in the relegation zone of Coca-Cola League One with a return of just 3 points from their 7 games thus far.

FootyMad's prediction ...
Its been a distinctly poor show from Exeter City at home in recent games, and, though I cannot see a run starting here, I do think the Grecians will at least gain a draw. No-score draw
