There is still plenty to play for in the English National League, with promotion to League Two the biggest undecided issue. One team hoping to secure a play-off spot, Eastleigh visit Altrincham on Tuesday night.
The home team have very little left to play for this season and currently sit 17th place in the National League table.
Their recent form in the English fifth tier has been poor, as the team from the north-west have won just one of their last eight outings. A 4-3 win over Yeovil Town last time out ended a seven-game winless run in the National League for Altrincham.
Phil Parkinson’s team have been poor on home soil of late, winning just two of their last eight matches in the National League. Their recent outings at the J. Davidson Stadium have been high-scoring, with over 2.5 goals scored in three of their last four matches on home soil.
Eastleigh’s recent form in the fifth tier has aided their hopes of claiming a play-off spot. The visitors are now just a point outside the top-seven spots after a run of six wins in their last seven outings in the National League.
The visitors have a good recent defensive record in the fifth-tier, as they have kept clean sheets in five of their last seven outings.
Defender Joe Tomlinson has been in good top goalscoring form of late, scoring in his last three outings in the National League. The 20-year-old has now scored 12 goals in the fifth tier this season. His tally has been boosted by the fact that the youngster takes penalty kicks.
Eastleigh’s recent away form has not been great in the National League, winning just three of their last 11 matches on their travels.
Forebet predicts that this clash will finish in a low-scoring draw, which will still leave Eastleigh outside the play-offs spots courtesy of inferior goal difference to seventh place Chesterfield.
