It’s a chilly December Saturday at The Scholars Ground, where the stage is set for an intriguing Non League Div One - Northern West showdown between Chasetown and Trafford. Kick-off is scheduled for 15:00 GMT, on December 13,2025.

Recent form suggests Chasetown are the team to beat. Their last meeting with Trafford ended in a convincing 3-1 win for Chasetown, but their overall record against Trafford has been mixed. In their last five encounters, Chasetown have won three times and lost twice.

Chasetown will look to use their home advantage to full effect and an expected win probability of 45% suggests they are the favorites. Trafford on the other hand has a lowly10% win probability and will need to be at their best to get anything from this match.

Tactically, speaking Chasetown should look to control the tempo of the game and use their home fans to their advantage. A high-intensity press could unsettle Trafford and limit their ability to create scoring chances.

The win probabilities suggest a low-scoring game with Chasetown likely to score less than four goals and Trafford scoring fewer than two. If recent form is any indication, Chasetown should be able to get the three points but it will not be an easy game. A draw is a likely outcome as well with probabilities suggesting almost half of the outcomes will end in a stalemate.

This match has all the ingredients to be an entertaining game with both teams looking to get maximum points. Will Chasetown be able to use home advantage and recent form to their benefit or can Trafford pull off a surprise win? The Scholars Ground will be the place to find out come Saturday afternoon.
