Everything That's Going On Later In The North & South

By Sam Elliott

There are important games everywhere you look as the National League North and South comes to life under the lights tonight.

The leaders in the two divisions have little wiggle room - and both faced serious examinations of their title credentials.

National League North table toppers Scunthorpe United make a demanding trip to Darlington, who have shown for a few seasons that they can push the fancied sides all the way.

Chorley are always chasing and after both they and Farsley Celtic had a weekend to forgot, there’s a lot at stake in Buxton.

Count Curzon Ashton out at your peril, especially if they can win at home to Southport.

Kidderminster Harriers fans can’t wait to see what 2025 holds after a really strong end to a difficult year. A trip to King’s Lynn Town will show what they’re made of and test their unbeaten run.

Elsewhere, free-scoring South Shields are at Alfreton Town, Chester want another home win against Oxford City and so do Marine, and they welcome Spennymoor Town.

Whatever happens in the National League South this evening will do well to top last night

Monday’s two games saw 17 goals as Aveley and Dorking Wanderers secured stunning wins over St Albans and Hemel Hempstead respectively.

This evening, leaders Weston-super-Mare go to fourth place Torquay United looking to prove they can make their stay at the top a long one.

Truro City in second head to Weymouth while contenders Eastbourne Borough are on the road at Maidstone United.

There’s plenty of other intriguing match-ups. Farnborough face Worthing while play-off points are up for grabs as Chippenham Town meet Slough Town.

Managerless Bath City are at home to Salisbury, Hampton & RB want to carry on their great run at Chesham while Enfield Town need points down the bottom of the table as Hornchurch pay a visit.
