That’s because you can slip a cigarette paper between the teams at the top of both divisions - so that makes tonight’s full programme crucial.
We left the National League South in an incredible place on Saturday with four sides locked on 52 points at the top.
Last night, we made it five. Maidstone United could only draw at ten man Chelmsford City but that point moves them up to second in the closest title race anywhere... possibly ever!
Boreham Wood fans were left stunned on Saturday when Chippenham turned up and hit them for four - they face a real task putting that behind them at Worthing, who have just won at Maidstone.
The Bluebirds hope to put another title chasers in their place as Torquay United visit Hardenhuish Park after themselves being turned over at home at the weekend.
Eastbourne Borough haven’t lost in ten matches and travel with real confidence to Enfield Town.
Dorking Wanderers know they need to apply some pressure, they’re at home to Aveley, while Welling United face Hemel Hempstead following a sensational Saturday for both teams.
Every point in the National League North is important as we fast approach the final three months of the campaign.
Chester sit at the top but manager Calum McIntyre says is just happy his side are safe from relegation! The leaders head to Radcliffe hoping to make it six wins from six and leave the chasing pack with plenty to think about.
Two of the contenders come together with Brackley Town hosting Kidderminster Harriers, who need to put a challenging few matches to bed with a positive evening.
Scunthorpe United are second and have won their last three at home. Needham Market visit Glanford Park tonight on a high after a stunning late win at Alfreton.
King's Lynn Town didn’t enjoy their weekend and they hope to get their challenge back on track against fast-improving Rushall Olympic. Curzon Ashton look for a second win in six at spirited Oxford City while Darlington meet Buxton with three huge play-off points on offer.
