Super Silkmen set for title triumph at Eastleigh
John Askey's Macclesfield are on the march back to the EFL
National League
BT Sport 2, 12.30pm Saturday
It’s take two for Macclesfield as they enjoy a lunchtime kickoff for the second consecutive week knowing victory at Eastleigh will secure promotion back to the Football League next season.
John Askey's Silkmen make the trip to Silverlake Stadium having lost just one of their last 14 games and boast by far the most impressive away form this season.
By contrast, Andy Hessenthaler’s Eastleigh have won just twice in that period and have conceded the most goals outside the bottom four.
The Spitfires won the reverse fixture 2-1 in October courtesy of a brace from Mark Yeates so are not without hope, but Macclesfield have been a different side since then, losing just twice, and should put on a champion's performance.
