Crewe Alex. are ready to welcome Bournemouth to The Alexandra Stadium on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The The Railwaymen are clearly on top, having won 9 and lost only 4 of the 17 games.
The previous match played between the two at The Alexandra Stadium was more than three years back, in January 2003, where the two teams cancelled each other out in an enthralling 2-2 draw in an F.A. Cup match.

Recent respective form guides
Crewe Alexandra's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While The Railwaymen have scored 9, a worringly large 15 have been leaked at the other end.
Bournemouth's away form is none too clever either, collecting just 4 draws from the last six contests. While the Cherries have hit 8 goals, 11 have hit the back of the wrong net.
Crewe Alex. find themselves struggling down in 17th position in the league having picked up 29 points from their 25 matches. Bournemouth are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 28 points from 27 matches.

FootyMad's prediction ...
Its been a distinctly poor show from Crewe Alex. at home in recent games, and, though I cannot see a run starting here, I do think the The Railwaymen will at least gain a draw. Score draw
