From the dramatic play-off final defeat to Notts County in May, Chesterfield currently lead the National League standings as Paul Cook's side take on Southend United on Saturday.
Last involved in a 2-0 loss at Altrincham, the Shrimpers are 16th but would be up in the play-offs had it not been for a 10-point deduction in August.
Chesterfield's seven-game winning run amid an unbeaten streak of 15 games in all competitions includes a 1-0 FA Cup win over Portsmouth before returning to a 4-2 league victory against Barnet among the recent results.
