Plenty Of Points Up For Grabs Across The Three Divisions

We’ve got just one National League game, and Southend United hope Eastleigh minds may be drifting elsewhere.

The Spitfires know if they defeat Newport County a few days later, it is they who will host mighty Manchester United in the FA Cup.

But Richard Hill insists it’s full focus on the club’s play-off push - and neither of these sides are giving up on a top seven finish yet.

It’s tricky away matches for the teams at the top of the National League North as Tamworth look to improve their five-point lead at the top.

They’re on the road at Darlington, who have their own agenda down the bottom and Steve Watson needs points and fast.

Scunthorpe United won’t want to let the gap widen but a trip to Brackley Town is always one of the harder away days - Gavin Cowan’s team are looking for promotion themselves.

Two teams desperate to be a part of the action when it matters are Boston United and Curzon Ashton - their meeting could have a big impact on how things pan out.

Elsewhere on Saturday, in-form Scarborough got to Farsley Celtic and King’s Lynn Town take their survival mission to Buxton.

There’s a chance for Maidstone United to pull Yeovil Town a little nearer in the National League South.

The FA Cup heroes head for Havant & Waterlooville and they will reduce the Glovers’ advantage to ten points with victory in Hampshire.

Eastbourne Borough manager Adam Murray got off to a great start with a plucky point at Torquay United but it’s wins they need - St Albans City are next and they're aiming for a third win on the spin.

Truro City are also in fine form and can make it five wins in a row if they take down Worthing, who look real promotion contenders once again.

There’s not too many teams taking points off Slough Town right now but Weymouth’s need is great, Bobby Wilkinson’s team sit just one place outside the bottom four.

Elsewhere, Hemel Hempstead tackle Tonbridge Angels while Dover Athletic will soon be doomed if they don’t start picking up more points - can they get things going against Taunton Town?
