Who'll Have A Happy National League North New Year?

The New Year’s Day programme is a reversal of the Boxing Day fixtures - and there’s plenty riding every single one.

Will there be any stopping the National League North’s two form teams?

Blyth Spartans are on their best run for years and Alun Armstrong wants more of the same when they visit fourth place Spennymoor in the game of the day.

Southport have also taken an impressive 20 points from their last eight games. Can they put on over Chester again?

Bradford Park Avenue are the leaders and if they play anywhere near as good as they did against Guiseley on December 26 on Tuesday then that’s where they’ll stay.

Chorley were great against FC United as they won 4-1 at Broadhurst Park on Boxing Day but will the Red Rebels respond?

Stockport County are into third and looking menacing. Their title resolve will be tested at Altrincham, Phil Parkinson’s team make it easy for nobody at Moss Lane.

Curzon Ashton are bottom of the form guide with just two points from six games. They really need to get the better of Ashton United.

In the early kick-off bottom side Nuneaton have to start 2019 well with a home win over AFC Telford United.

Hereford are really coming strong under Marc Richards. Can they get a second win over Kidderminster inside a week?

York City fans aren’t enjoying their season again - can they begin the new year with a new positive approach by winning at home to improving Darlington?

Any neutrals at Leamington vs Brackley Town surely wouldn’t mind a repeat of Boxing Day’s 2-2 draw while Boston go to Billy Heath’s Alfreton.
