Haldane was part of the Port Vale team that won 2-1 at Crewe in October

Port Vale winger Lewis Haldane has targeted a goal against local rivals Crewe on Saturday, after failing to score in any of his last four matches.

Haldane, 25, has netted three times in 34 appearances for the League Two club since moving to Vale Park from Bristol Rovers in September.

"Hopefully I can get a goal on Saturday," he told BBC Radio Stoke.

"I've got a couple in the last month and I want to get a couple more before the end of the season."

Haldane went 17 matches and more than four months without a goal before scoring in the 2-1 win at Torquay on 13 February.

He followed that with a striker in the 3-1 victory over bottom club Darlington.

Micky Adams' side are looking to complete the double over Crewe, having won 2-1 at the Alexandra Stadium in October.

"I thought it was one of my best games for Vale. There was a great atmosphere and I hope it will be the same on Saturday," said Haldane.

"It was a good game up at Crewe. The fans will be up for it and hopefully we can get the three points."
