Matthew O'Regan has his best bets and predictions for this midweek slate of non-league football.
Chertsey Town host Walton & Hersham at Alwyns Ground in the Southern Premier League South.
The Curfews stormed to the Isthmian League South Central division title last season but are deep in relegation trouble this year after four straight losses. Mark Harper's side sit 17th in the league, two places and two points above the relegation zone.
With 48 goals scored and 55 conceded in 27 games, Chertsey games are averaging 3.8 goals, with a league-high 23/27 league games seeing at least three goals, including the reverse fixture in which Chertsey lost 3-2.
Walton & Hersham sit fifth in the table after a 2-3 win at Havant & Waterlooville in a crucial six-pointer in the battle for the playoffs. The Swans have now won three games on the bounce, scoring nine goals in the process, taking their tally to 56 for the season. Only the top two - Merthyr Town and AFC Totton- scored more goals.
Billy Rowley's side have seen their games average 3.55 goals. 17/27 have seen at least three,
Prediction: Over 3.0 Goal Line @1.875
The Isthmian Premier League title race is set to go down to the wire, with five teams separated by just four points. Sitting top of the pile and with a game in hand are Dartford who are 19 matches unbeaten, winning ten on the bounce. Adrian Pennock's side have been strong at home, taking 30 points from 15, scoring 30 goals in the process.
Visiting Princes Park are a Chichester side, who themselves have won seven in a row and still harbour outside chances of finishing in the playoffs after promotion last year. Despite their strong vein of form, Chichester have been inconsistent on their travels, picking up 19 points from 13.
It should be an intriguing battle between two in-form teams - one the home side should have the better of.
Prediction: Dartford -0.5, -1.0 Asian Handicap @1.775
The National League South title race, like the Isthmian Premier League, looks enthralling with six points separating the top seven. Dorking currently reside at the top of the table but have played more games than the chasing pack, so will be chasing another win to build momentum.
Marc White's side suffered their first relegation in their 25-year history last year as they finished in the bottom four of the National League. Wanderers are unbeaten in five, winning four of these. They have also been strong at Meadowbank, taking 29 points from 16 games, with these matches averaging three goals. Of their 16 home games, 12 have seen 'Both Teams To Score' - the most in the league.
Tonbridge Angels sit tenth, nine points off the playoffs after failing to win any of their last four games. Jay Saunders' side have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last eight, with BTTS landing in their last five. Away from home, Angels' have seen BTTS in 10/15 games, taking just 14 points.
Prediction: Dorking Win and Both Teams To Score @3.40
A 3-0 home win over Bowers & Pitsea thwarted a six-game losing streak that has seen Dulwich Hamlet tumble towards the relegation zone. Hamlet now sit four points clear of Hendon having played a game more. With 45 goals scored and 56 conceded, Bradley Quinton's side matches are averaging 3.49 goals. 12/15 games at Champion Hill have seen at least three goals - the joint most in the league.
Folkestone are in strong form having won their last three games, including a 3-0 win over title-changing Horsham. While only 8/13 of their away games have seen over 2.5 goals, including six of their last seven as Invicta continue to impress in front of goal.
Prediction: Over 3.0 Goal Line @2.00
Truro have been the surprise package in the National League South promotion race, sat just six points off Dorking with two games in hand. John Askey's side have relied on strong home form, picking up 30 points from 15 in Cornwall.
Farnborough have won just one of their last ten games, losing seven. The Yellows have the second worst away record in the league, picking up just nine points on their travels, including their last six. Some of these losses came against sides in the bottom four (Enfield, and Aveley) - showcasing their weakness on the road.
Prediction: Truro City To Win @1.90
