Competition: National League North
Market: AFC Fylde win
Odds: 4/9 @ 1xBet
Looking to extend on their promotion charge in midweek, AFC Fylde will welcome Leamington to Mill Farm on Tuesday night.
Starting with the hosts, making an immediate return to winning ways over the weekend as they cruised their way to a 3-1 victory away at Telford, AFC Fylde will be dreaming of a repeat performance here. Losing their National League status last season, it is no secret that Craig Mahon’s men have their sights firmly set on clinching an immediate fifth-tier return this time around. Getting the new campaign underway with an action-packed 3-2 win at home against Oxford City on August 9th, the Lancashire-based outfit will be confident of making another statement here. In fact, the former Cursor Ashton boss has seen his squad register 22 points from their first nine appearances. Knowing that they can move within touching distance of top spot in the National League North standings here, AFC Fylde have also impressed with their free-scoring performances in the final third. Including a stellar 5-0 romp against Peterborough Sports on September 6th, Tuesday’s hosts have already notched 23 goals so far this season and hold the best-attacking return in the division.
As for the visitors, while Leamington might have clinched consecutive National League North victories on either side of opening September, the Brakes have come crashing back down to earth in a worrying fashion. Last seen over the weekend suffer a collapse on home soil as they eventually fell to a 2-1 defeat at the hands of Hereford, Paul Holleran’s side have come tumbling down the table. Getting Tuesday’s showdown underway scrapping it out in the bottom-half of the standings, Leamington look set for what will be another stern challenge here. Watching their FA Cup qualifying adventure come to an end on September 13th as they slumped to a 3-0 drumming against Alvechurch, Hollernan’s men have lost all of their previous three appearances across all competitions. Including a 2-0 defeat against Spennymoor last month, the midweek guests have shown some recent issues at the back. In fact, the Warwickshire-based outfit have mustered just a sole clean sheet from any of their previous seven matchups across all fronts.
Bet: AFC Fylde 4/9 to beat Leamington in Tuesday’s National League North matchup @ 1xBet
