What's In Store In The National League South On Saturday?

By Tom Scott

The National League South is back after a jam-packed festive period subsides.

League leaders Torquay United will be looking to extend their lead at the top to five points against Slough Town.

The Rebels have been in decent form despite losing to Wealdstone on New Year's Day.

Billericay were the surprise package over Christmas for all the wrong reasons. Dean Brennan's men head to Weston-super-Mare looking to arrest the slide.

The Christmas period wasn't kind to Welling and they welcome an unpredictable Truro side to Park View Road.

There's a huge game at the bottom of the table - East Thurrock United are unbeaten in two albeit two draws. Managerless Gloucester City are in town for this six-pointer.

With the league wide open, three points for either St Albans or Oxford City in their game could prove crucial at the end of the season.

Eastbourne Borough will be hoping their win at Dulwich Hamlet on New Year's Day will be a sign of things to come as they look ahead to a trip to Chippenham Town.

Dartford are going well and will have the play-offs in their sights if they can overcome Wealdstone.

What a run it's been for Sammy Moore and Concord Rangers. The Beachboys are unbeaten in seven games as they head to strugglers Hungerford Town.

Bath City produced some New Year's fireworks last time out and will be hoping for more of the same against Dulwich Hamlet.

Chelmsford boosted their promotion hopes with two huge wins over Billericay over Christmas. Rod Stringer's men will look to keep the good feeling going against Hampton & Richmond.
