Bury prepare to entertain Macclesfield Town at Gigg Lane on Tuesday evening, aiming to preserve their record of never having lost at home to the visitors. The majority of those games have been won by the The Shakers.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Gigg Lane was less than a year ago, in April 2009, with Bury running out comfortable 3-0 winners in a League Two match.
