By Oliver Osborn

A match-stat preview ahead of the midweek Vanarama National League action, produced by LV BET.

New Chesterfield manager James Rowe takes charge of his first home match as the Spirerites look for record back-to-back wins.

In-form Bromley head to Kings Lynn Town, who return to league action following their FA Cup trip to Portsmouth. Maidenhead United take on struggling Dover Athletic, while Solihull Moors aim to keep another clean sheet and claim all three points at home to Hartlepool United.

League leaders Torquay United head to the division's entertainers Wealdstone. Two further play-off teams in Woking and Sutton United battle it out in another of tonight's fixtures.

Wrexham will aim to keep their recent unbeaten run going as they host Altrincham, a side on the up after surprising Maidenhead at the weekend.

Desperate for a win Yeovil Town will hope to get a valuable victory against Eastleigh, with Notts County heading south to goal-shy Dagenham & Redbridge.

Finally on Matchday 12, low scorers FC Halifax Town face Barnet.
