Unibet's Vanarama National League Matchday 31 Preview

By Sam Elliott

The National League schedule is uncompromising - so what has Tuesday got in store for us?

It’s pretty much a full programme, but with the leaders Stockport County putting their feet up the question is what can the chasing pack do in their absence?

Saturday wasn’t kind to those hoping to overhaul the table toppers so with a big night in store they know the temperature needs to be turned up again.

Torquay United vs Boreham Wood

Luke Garrard knew Boreham Wood’s brilliant run would eventually come to an end but would have preferred it not to have been in front of a national audience.

The BT Sport defeat at Maidenhead United was their first loss since October - and he straight away challenged his team to get on another one.

Torquay United can’t work out if they are good enough for another play-off tilt or not.

Two goals to the good against Barnet on Saturday, they fluffed their lines. Time is running out for last season’s beaten Promotion Finalists to claw back enough ground.

Notts County vs FC Halifax Town

Separated by just two points but four places, these contenders meet for the second time in ten days.

After Notts’ FA Trophy success at the Shay, there’s three important points now on offer.

No side have taken more points at home than County with ten Meadow Lane wins already to their name. The latest was on Saturday against Eastleigh will keep their fans coming back for more.

Halifax are very decent on the road, losing just once since October. Last time out they left Dagenham with three points.

The Shaymen have games in hand on Stockport but know if they want to stay in the title race they need to keep the wins flowing.

Chesterfield vs Wrexham

Both these promotion heavyweights have one thing in mind - making this their last National League season.

While the past few weeks hasn’t always been kind, this season is surely the best chance either have had of ending their EFL exile.

Chesterfield fans don’t think the football gods have been smiling on them lately but know the power of three points against a big promotion rival.

Victory cuts County’s lead back to three points and casts aside a challenging February.

Wrexham, who will be backed by 1,800 fans tonight, left it very late at Wealdstone and now it’s about getting a head of steam.

Phil Parkinson’s team have won seven of their last nine away games and with three home matches on the spin after this, opportunity knocks.

It’s no doubt the game of the evening and there is certain to be plenty of twists ahead.

It’s sure to be a full-on Tuesday night around the grounds!
