National League South and North - Front Runners, Top Scorer and Bookmaker Odds - 31 December 2026

Publish Date: 03/01/2026
Fact checked by: Jordan Noble

The National League South and North went down to the wire last year and looks set to again this year after a blistering start. We take a look at the current front runners, top scorers and bookmaker odds.

πŸ” NATIONAL LEAGUE SOUTH TOP 5 (2025/26) β€” OVERALL TABLE (As of 31st December 2025)

πŸ₯‡ Worthing β€” 23 GP, 48 pts

πŸ”₯πŸ₯ˆ Hornchurch β€” 24 GP, 46 pts

πŸ₯‰ Weston-super-Mare β€” 23 GP, 45 pts

⭐ Torquay United β€” 24 GP, 43 pts

⭐ Dorking Wanderers β€” 24 GP, 43 pts

⚽ TOP 5 GOALSCORERS β€” NATIONAL LEAGUE SOUTH 2025/26

πŸ† Brad Dolaghan (Worthing) β€” 18 goals

✨πŸ₯ˆ Oluwalopemi Aderoju (Eastbourne Borough) β€” 15 goals

πŸ₯‰ Louis Britton (Weston-super-Mare) β€” 13 goals

⭐Louis Dennis (Torquay United) β€” 13 goals

⭐ Jordan Young (Torquay United) β€” 12 goals

πŸ’· NATIONAL LEAGUE SOUTH β€” TITLE ODDS (Bookmakers)(As of 31st December 2025)

πŸ₯‡ Worthing β€” 1.90 ⭐️

πŸ₯ˆ Hornchurch β€” 7.00

πŸ₯‰ Torquay United β€” 8.00

⭐ Weston-super-Mare β€” 10.00

⭐ Dorking Wanderers β€” 11.00

Verdict

It is reflected in the odds but I can't see Worthing not winning the title. They have won 11/12 under Adam Hinshelwood. They have scored 2+ in every game and have firmed up the defence - so it would take a brave man to back against them.

πŸ” NATIONAL LEAGUE NORTH TOP 5 (2025/26) β€” OVERALL TABLE(As of 31st December 2025)

πŸ₯‡ South Shields β€” 24 GP, 55 pts

πŸ₯ˆ AFC Fylde β€” 24 GP, 51 pts

πŸ₯‰ Merthyr Town β€” 24 GP, 47 pts

⭐ Kidderminster Harriers β€” 24 GP, 43 pts

⭐ Radcliffe β€” 23 GP, 40 pts

⚽ TOP 5 GOALSCORERS β€” NATIONAL LEAGUE NORTH 2025/26(As of 31st December 2025)

πŸ† Rees R. (Merthyr Town) β€” 25 goals

πŸ₯ˆ Marsh T. (Bedford) β€” 19 goals

πŸ₯‰ Clegg R. (Radcliffe) β€” 15 goals

⭐ Ormerod D. (AFC Fylde) β€” 15 goals

⭐ Scott C. (South Shields) β€” 15 goals

πŸ’· NATIONAL LEAGUE NORTH β€” TITLE ODDS (Bookmakers)(As of 31st December 2025)

πŸ₯‡ South Shields β€” 1.61

πŸ₯ˆ AFC Fylde β€” 3.25

πŸ₯‰ Merthyr Town β€” 11.00

⭐ Kidderminster Harriers β€” 15.00

⭐ Radcliffe β€” 34.00

Verdict

South Shields, who top the league have the second best attacking record in the league, as well as the best defensive record and have already won away at AFC Fylde.
