National League South: Complete Weekend Preview

It’s about to turn sub-zero but those who manage to get their games on could really feel the benefit.

Especially with things so tight at the top of the table, Torquay United leading the way with a one point advantage.

A home game with Welling United in scheduled, with second place Boreham Wood also hoping to warm their supporters - they welcome Hampton & RB.

Maidstone United have the luxury of a 3G pitch of course and if things go their way this weekend they could go top for the first time this season. But visitors Enfield Town are fighting for their lives and arrive off the back of a win against Chelmsford City.

Two promotion hopefuls pray the plastic will be fantastic.Eastbourne Borough and Truro City meet with both within touching distance of first place.

Things are tight up the right end - but not at the wrong one.

Those in the bottom four have at least a seven point gap to bridge if they want to stay up so it’s a crucial weekend for St Albans City at out of form Weston-super-Mare, for Aveley against Chesham United and basement boys Weymouth, who welcome Dorking Wanderers.

Bath City want to build on Darren Way’s productive start with Chelmsford City due in Somerset.

Worthing hope to keep the goals coming at Hornchurch while Salisbury look to put further distance between themselves and the bottom four when they meet Farnborough, who have taken just one point from a possible 12.

Hemel Hempstead sit just one place above the drop zone so it’s important they secure a positive result at home to Slough Town.

Tonbridge Angels have won three from five and another victory at home to Chippenham Town would close the gap to the top seven even further.
