After back-to-back promotions from the Southern Central Premier Division, Tamworth had a strong National League campaign, finishing 10th and reaching the FA Cup third round, where they famously took Tottenham to extra time.
This season, The Lambs are 13th in the league, nine points clear of safety despite losing six from seven. Andy Peaks will be hoping to close the gap to playoffs by seven points.
Southend came excruciatingly close to promotion last year, being defeated in extra time by two late Oldham goals. This year, the Shrimpers sit in the final playoff place looking to avenge last season’s heart break and end a five year exodus from the Football League.
Prediction: 1-2
Despite 98 points last season, The Minstermen missed out on promotion, losing to Oldham in the home semi-final. Adam Hinshelwood was dismissed as manager with Stuart Maynard his replacement.
They currently sit four points off the top, having scored a league high 55 in 21, winning six on the bounce, scoring 24 goals.
Truro shocked many by achieving promotion last year in a tight National League South campaign. They are the first Cornish side to achieve promotion to the National League football and have struggled.
The Tinnermen are rooted to the bottom of the table, five points from safety. John Askey’s side had lost seven matches on the trot before a midweek win against Wealdstone. On the road, they’ve taken just two points, conceding 27 goals.
Prediction: 5-0
