31 Mar 2022 By Sam Elliott

After everyone got the chance to put their feet up in midweek, the National League North and South returns - and there’s a humdinger ahead.

Gateshead and Brackley Town are toe-to-toe at the top and they butt heads on Saturday in a game that is simply massive in both clubs’ seasons.

There’s some sensational games in the South ahead of us as well so let’s delve into the weekend with the stand out matches,

Oxford City vs Dartford - National League South

Steve King’s Darts are refusing to be ruled out of the title race just yet, but they need to keep on winning.

With a game in hand, they are looking to close the gap to six points on pace-setting Maidstone United, and they still have the leaders to come at home.

Oxford City are now probably too far off to challenge for top spot, and their focus is likely to shift to finishing as high as possible to secure home advantage in the play-offs.

Winning their last three in front of their own fans, Ross Jenkins will want to get back on track after defeat at Ebbsfleet and Billericay Town.

Brackley Town vs Gateshead - National League North

In terms of title races, there’s no bigger game anywhere else this weekend.

There’s just three points between them and with a game in hand Brackley Town know the power of three points on Saturday.

Gateshead busted a few coupons last weekend, the leaders unable to better Bradford Park Avenue at the International Stadium.

There was frustration too for the Saints, who couldn’t hold their lead at Spennymoor Town and had to settle for a 1-1 after being hit late.

But on their side this weekend is an incredible home record.

Brackley have been so impressive at St James Park, winning nine of their last ten. Their last loss in Northants came back in September.

Heed, however, have already scored 77 goals this season.

That means Brackley won’t top the table on Saturday even if they do down their title rivals.

It’s going to be a sensational weekend!
