History of the Tamworth v Morecambe fixture

Morecambe face a trip to Tamworth at The Lamb Ground on Saturday afternoon, and will hope to continue their unbeaten record at the ground. Out of their two previous meetings, the Shrimps have won one, and drawn the other.

The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in April 2005, when they played out a goalless draw in a Conference match.
