There’s a mouthwatering meeting at the top of the National League tonight - and it’s a chance to bury a ghost.

You can stream all of tonight's action on National League TV from as little as £9.50 - see here for details.

Bromley return to the scene of their heartbreak, defeated in extra time at Chesterfield in an edge-of-your-seat play-off semi-final back in May.

It was ultimately agony for both of course, but they’ve made a good fist of channeling their torment into something positive.

The Spireites are top, dropping points just once in eight matches but the chasing pack are quick to close in on them. That includes Bromley, who have now won seven of their last eight, the only game they failed to win was at unbeaten Solihull Moors.

Barnet with a win will depose Chesterfield at the top if their fellow Londoners do them a favour. They are great at home but Dean Brennan has urged focus as struggling AFC Fylde visit.

Who will finally end Moors’ run? Rochdale on their day can beat anyone and this evening travel to the Midlands in possession of the final play-off spot. Can they stay there?

Woking hope not. They’re at home to FC Halifax Town while also on 19 points are Hartlepool United who hope October is better as they go to Boreham Wood on Wednesday night.

Altrincham loved life last month, especially the final fortnight. They’re hunting a fourth win in a row when Aldershot Town pay a visit while Dagenham & Redbridge’s search for consistency continues, they’re at home to equally as hot-and-cold York City.

Gateshead had a set-back at Bromley on Saturday but they’ll repair that damage by beating Wealdstone in the North East, but as Oldham found out on Saturday they’re a tough nut to crack.

Kidderminster Harriers could have done without a game with bang in form Dorking Wanderers as they search for that potentially season-changing result.

Southend United look to move closer to the other side of the dotted line by beating Oxford City while Eastleigh and Ebbsfleet United know they’re not far off a promotion place - can one of the sides get a leg up later on?
