FT: Oldham Athletic 2 v 2 Chesterfield: LIVE UPDATES (12.30pm)

There could be an edge to today's given what happened in the reverse fixture.

James Norwood's controversial added-time equaliser which made it 1-1 sparked a pitch invasion by the Oldham fans. That led to Town keeper Harry Tyrer being shoved over and some scuffles taking place.

As a result, Oldham were fined £5,000.

They have won just one of their last six games.
