National League South: Complete Weekend Preview

By Sam Elliott

Many of the summer National League South promotion tips started strongly on opening weekend, but can they follow that up with another win?

Any kind of a victory is gobbled up on match day one and fancied Boreham Wood, Dorking Wanderers, Maidstone United and Worthing all won by one goal.

So what will the second instalment bring?

Wood this weekend go to Chesham looking to back up a narrow but needed victory over Bath City, while Marc White’s Dorking play host to Chippenham.

It was a rollercoaster for Worthing as they spun the game at Weston on its head. They’re on the road at St Albans, who Maidstone defeated on Saturday.

George Elokobi’s Stones are at the Gallagher Stadium in front of their supporters where Truro City go hunting their first point.

But it’s newcomers Hornchurch who lead the way very early on. After defeating Hampton it’s a home game with Eastbourne Borough while the Beavers hope to get things going at Chelmsford City.

Farnborough are Torquay United both got things starting with perhaps unconvincing 2-1 victories, they meet at Cherrywood Road.

Enfield and Weston look to get off the mark while Slough Town, pictured, and their fans want more of the same - after a brilliant first day win at home to Chelmsford City, Salisbury are in their sights.

Bobby Wilkinson takes Hemel Hempstead to his old club Weymouth, while Bath City tackle Rod Stringer’s Welling United.

Tonbridge Angels want to make it two wins from two but Aveley have a point to prove following their sticky opener.
