Pools travel to the Crown Oil Arena to take on Rochdale on Easter Monday, on the back of Good Friday's victory over Halifax.
The Lowdown
Mani Dieseruvwe scored from the spot against his former side as Pools claimed a 1-0 win over the Shaymen at the Suit Direct Stadium. Kevin Phillips' outfit currently occupy 14th place in the National League table.
Rochdale sit in 11th, three points above Hartlepool though Jimmy McNulty's side fell to a 1-0 defeat at Gateshead last time out. Dale are currently on a four-game unbetean run at the Crown Oil Arena, with their last home defeat coming to Solihull Moors on February 17.
The History
This will be the 153rd meeting between the sides, with Pools winning 54 of the previous matches and Rochdale winning 61. Dale won the reverse fixture back in October, taking a three-goal lead in the first half before Pools pulled two back.
Team News
Alex Lacey, Dan Dodds, Luke Hendrie, Kieran Wallace, Anthony Mancini, Otis Khan and Josh Umerah all remain sidelined for Monday's fixture. Brennan Dickenson is also a doubt, though the Oldham Athletic loanee is filtering back into training.
