National League football betting preview, tips and odds

3pm Saturday

Barrow have been in fantastic form since November, losing just one of their last 13 league games, and they look a great price to extend that run against Ebbsfleet.

That period has included some big scalps for the Bluebirds, who have earned victory over promotion contenders Solihull, Salford and Sutton.

They are 11th place and their poor start to the season looks likely to have thwarted any hopes they had of making the playoffs. But they can continue to climb the table with a win against the Fleet, who have won just three of their last ten away matches and will be making their longest journey of the season.

Maidenhead can get the better of Dover in another southern clash.

The Magpies earned a cracking 1-0 victory at Leyton Orient last week and have now won four of their last six in the league to lift them out of the relegation zone and up to 18th.

Dover earned a big victory of their own last week when they trumped Salford 3-1 and it is likely to be a close game, but if Alan Devonshire’s side can hold up defensively they could earn all three points.

If you had backed both teams to score in Harrogate’s last 20 matches, you would have had 19 winning bets, and it may come in again when they play Chesterfield.

The Spireites have rediscovered some form since the arrival of John Sheridan as manager and they could match the Yorkshire side in front of goal.
