Altrincham play host to Wealdstone on Tuesday night looking for the victory that will keep the club in the National League promotion race.

At a time when the home side occupy ninth position in the standings, Wealdstone are down in 15th spot and looking to avoid a relegation battle.

We say: Altrincham 2-1 Wealdstone

Given Altrincham's lack of consistency, Wealdstone will sense an opportunity to cause an upset in the North-West. However, we are backing the home side to do what is necessary to collect three points and potentially move into the top six in the process.

Gateshead play host to North-East rivals Hartlepool United on Tuesday evening looking for the win that will strengthen their promotion bid in the National League.

While the home side sit in sixth position in the standings, Hartlepool are down in 14th place and need a win to ease any lingering relegation concerns.

We say: Gateshead 2-1 Hartlepool United

Although Hartlepool head into this fixture on the back of two draws, confidence remains low ahead of a highly-anticipated fixture. In sharp contrast, Gateshead have just come through a thriller against a promotion rival and we are backing another hard-earned triumph here.
