By Sam Elliott

One down, one to go! Not had your fill? Well there’s a second dose of National League action to come on this Bank Holiday bonanza.

So who will end August on a high? Part two of the double bill should be just as good as the first.

Here’s our pick of the offerings from matchday six as the new season really starts to gather momentum.

Notts County vs Solihull Moors

It’s probably the pick of the games anywhere on Bank Holiday Monday, and the winner will send out a clear message to the rest.

Notts County - unbeaten and who always score at home - have given their fans enough encouragement that, just maybe, it doesn’t have to be the play-offs this time around.

With 13 goals already, Solihull are clearly going to be up for the challenge again. They too have eyes for first place and will happily let others do most of the talking.

Both sides have scored in every game they have played this season so surely we will be seeing goals at Meadow Lane.

Scunthorpe United vs FC Halifax Town

This is not how either set of fans say things panning out at the start of the month.

Scunthorpe, who watched rivals Grimsby go down then bounce right back up again, have lost four of their first five.

Losing at Bromley, who had ten men for an hour, came after a chaotic defeat against a Solihull Moors side they lead 3-0.

Iron boss Keith Hill needs a result - but so do FC Halifax Town. Life after Pete Wild, the manager who took them to the play-offs last term, has not started at all well.

Chris Millington is yet to win and with only a single point on the board, they have at least finally scored a goal. Both bosses need the tide to start changing and quickly.

Barnet vs Eastleigh

One thing is for sure - if BT Sport are in town, it’s likely to be a good game!

Saturday’s 3-2 victory for Wrexham and Woking came after a belter between Notts County and Chesterfield.

Barnet are in a good place, despite Friday night’s loss at Chesterfield.

Dean Brennan refuses to dwell on a difficult start to the weekend, which also saw the Bees lose talented attacker Mason Ephron-Clark to Peterborough.

They have started the season superbly - but Eastleigh are running into good form.

Danny Whitehall’s double turned things around totally on Saturday at home to Southend. They may have had a day less to gear up for the live game, but they’ll still be on cloud nine.

The 95th minute winner was a tenth point earned from a possible 12.

The sides nobody predicted to be up in the promotion places are showing again how unpredictable the division is.

It’s going to be a manic Monday!
