Macclesfield face a trip to Notts. County at Meadow Lane on Saturday afternoon, and will hope to continue their unbeaten record at the ground. Half of the previous meetings have ended in a win, and the other half in a draw for The Silkmen.
The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in November 2007, with Macclesfield inflicting a narrow 0 - 1 defeat upon the Magpies in a League Two match.
