Exeter City – Fleetwood Town

Exeter City will host Fleetwood Town at St James Park as the ninth‑placed side look to build on their solid 16‑point tally, having netted eight while conceding six in 12 games. Fleetwood, perched at 18th with 14 points, will be desperate to close the gap and improve a goal record that has seen them concede 15 for every 14 they have scored. Both teams sit on identical win‑draw‑loss records, but Exeter’s superior goal difference (+2 versus Fleetwood’s –1) could prove decisive on their own turf. The clash offers Exeter a chance to stretch their lead over the mid‑table, while Fleetwood will need a result to steer clear of the relegation battle.
