What’s Going On Tonight In The National League

By Sam Elliott

We’ve got five league matches coming your way this evening with 15 important points up for grabs - not to mention an important National League Cup tie.

Rochdale will to climb back into the top seven and fast after they went down at Dagenham on Saturday.

They have won five of their last seven at home - but it's always tricky against Tamworth.

Ask York City, who were pegged back late on by the Lambs on Saturday and manager Andy Peaks just wants his side to keep take the game to the fancied big boys.

Few sides can boast an undefeated record like Maidstone United. The National League South club have recovered from a slow start but they haven’t takes defeat since September and want to extend that run to 14 matches this evening.

They head to Salisbury knowing a win will take them into a promotion place at last - but their hosts have hit Hemel Hempstead for five at home recently, and scored three against Farnborough.

Chesham and Tonbridge Angels have enjoyed their season and there’s no sign of a struggle. The winner will be plotting a play-off push.

King’s Lynn Town slipped from second to fourth in the National League North after two dropped points on Saturday.

Adam Lakeland wants his team to go two points behind leaders Curzon Ashton but they face a tough task at Brackley Town.

Elsewhere in the division, two former Football League names come together but will Hereford or Scarborough Athletic steal a march in the battle for the play-offs.

The Seadogs will be happy to leave it late again - they’ve scored two dramatic winners in their last two matches.

There's National League Cup action too and in Group D, Sutton United face West Ham U21.

The Us can take a big stride towards the next round with a second win against a young Hammers who have yet to earn a point in the new competition.
