In a weekend match on Saturday Feb 25th, in week 34, Fleetwood Town plays host to Morecambe in a meeting of these two mismatched League One teams. Weather on match day is looking like a cloudy and cool day, with daytime temperatures of only 5 degrees, making for an unpleasant day. In their last match, Fleetwood Town recorded a 1-0 shutout win against Cambridge United. Shaun Rooney scored the first goal for Fleetwood Town in the 88th minute, and with that single goal the scoring was complete. Neither team could manage anything else In the end, Cambridge United was frustrated by Fleetwood Town’s defence and couldn’t put any tallies on the board. Fleetwood Town ended the match with the shutout victory. They’re hoping to improve on their recent performance, having earned only 10 points in their last 10 matches, while 20th placed Morecambe is fresh off their 1-0 shutout win against Port Vale. Major struck first for Morecambe in the 51st minute, and that single goal was all that was necessary as neither team could manage any more scoring At the end of 90 a dissapointed Port Vale couldn’t manage to score, and Morecambe took the shutout win. Morecambe is looking for direction having earned 16 points in their last 10 matches.
In their last match together, Morecambe and Fleetwood Town battled to a 1-1 draw. Arthur Gnahoua struck first for Morecambe in the 32nd minute on a feed from Ashley Hunter, then in the 83rd minute, Cian Hayes sent in a beautiful pass which was converted by Danny Andrew earning Fleetwood Town a comeback draw.
Cole Stockton and Major are the top scorers for Morecambe in the last five matches, but unfortunately they only have one goal. It’s hard to imagine having success with those stats. Fleetwood Town’s most prolific scorer has been Shaun Rooney. He has netted two goals over the last five matches.
