Notts. County face a trip to Tranmere Rovers at Prenton Park on Saturday afternoon, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Magpies will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them ending up on the losing side in more than half of the games played between the two.
The most recent encounter between these two sides was just last season, in December 2002, where the two teams cancelled each other out in an enthralling 2 - 2 draw in a League Division Two match.
