North And South Leaders Look To Take A Huge Title Step

20 Feb 2024 By Sam Elliott

There’s a full complement of Vanarama National League North and South action coming your way tonight so let’s waste no time and look at what’s ahead.

Tamworth will know promotion will be a big step closer if they can leave Chorley victorious tonight.

The National League North Lambs just do not let in goals and still haven’t conceded in 2024. That amazing record will be tested against a Magpies side who have scored the same amount as the leaders and have won their last three.

Scunthorpe United need a favour - but they also need to start helping themselves. Just five points from a possible 15 is not title winning form and they need to close the 12-point gap when they go to a bruised South Shields side in a few hours.

Warrington Town sit top of the six game form guide and want to keep their play-off push going at Spennymoor Town. Chester want home advantage and to skip the Eliminators and their top three quest heads to Hereford.

Two former EFL names collide as Boston United face Darlington - and both have very different needs for the three points on offer.

Time is also running out for Gloucester City, they’re at Buxton, as fellow strugglers King’s Lynn travel to Brackley Town, who know the play-off race is too tight to take their eyes off the ball in midweek.

National League South table toppers Yeovil Town’s only title worry is Worthing - and would have probably had it won by now if it wasn’t for Ollie Pearce.

The on-song front man has 17 goals in ten matches and has hit back-to-back hat-tricks. He wants to carry that on as Adam Hinshelwood’s side go to Welling United, as the leaders look to increase their advantage at home to Weston-super-Mare.

Chelmsford City are giving their fans encouragement, they’re at Hemel Hempstead, while struggling Torquay United badly need to get going and it’s a tricky trip to Farnborough.

Hampton & RB suddenly find themselves out of the top seven and need to spark a recovery down at Weymouth, a side licking their wounds after a horror show at home to Worthing at the weekend.

Eastbourne Borough know they can’t drop points at home to bottom side Havant & Waterlooville, while Taunton Town want to make things very tricky for the current bottom four by defeating Chippenham Town.
