What's Ahead This Evening Across The National League

By Sam Elliott

There may not be many games going on tonight, but some of those that are taking place are certainly big ones.

We’ve got four games coming your way across the three divisions this evening.

In the National League, the bottom end of the table falls into focus and both bosses know what a win could do.

The two clubs either side of that dreaded dotted line lock horns - so there’s plenty riding on it.

Southend United sit just outside the drop zone, while Maidenhead United’s recent poor run has seen them sucked inside.

Both sit on 14 points and another large Roots Hall crowd along to see it.

York City could move into the National League North’s play-off pack - but they have to do something nobody in the division has achieved so far this season.

Home experts Gateshead have won five from five at the International Stadium and another Heed victory in the north east will see them move level on points with third place Chorley.

Liam Watson’s in-form Southport have won five from seven and can enhance their play-off push with a win at Guiseley.

Hampton & RB expect a good crowd at home to Braintree Town.

After the original game was abandoned due to floodlight issues, the home club have decided to let all fans in for free tonight.

A Beavers win will move them into the top seven - but victory for Braintree will drive them seven points clear of the relegation spot.
