One bet and one winner again on Saturday to continue the good run of form. Usually the season has finished by now, but we still have another month to go with the season having started late. We have a full fixture list on Bank Holiday Monday to look forward to in the National League with Sutton v Notts County live on BT on Tuesday tea time. I have 4 bets for Monday.
Boreham Wood v Kings Lynn
I know Boreham Wood love to draw, but the fact they haven't had to play since last Saturday is key for me because Kings Lynn have played two games since then. They only have a small squad and they are feeling the effects of such a busy period. They did draw 0-0 on Saturday, Maidenhead have been leggy in games as well so it is no surprise that was more of a balanced affair. They have been conceding plenty of goals and although Wood haven't scored in 4 games now they do have goals in them and I suspect they will get a few chances to score here. I am going to take them on the -1 at 6/4.
Dagenham & Redbridge v Woking
Dagenham have really found their form of late and they are playing really well. They have won their last 4 on the bounce now and compared to earlier in the season they are now scoring goals. They have netted 10 in that run and they will surely fancy their chances of adding a few against a Woking side who are desperate for the season to finish. They have picked up just 1 point in their last 9 games and in their 8 losses they have conceded at least twice in 6 of them. I would make them 1/2 chances so even at a shade of odds on I am happy to play. I am also going to cover the -1 handicap.
Maidenhead v Wrexham
As I mentioned earlier Maidenhead continuing to look very tired in games and they could struggle to hold of a Wrexham side who need the points to stay in the play-offs. I think the Welsh side will have too much for their hosts here and I am happy to play at 6/4
Stockport v Wealdstone
I don't really need to write too much here as Stockport really should be putting at least 3 or 4 past Wealdstone here. They have been conceding goals for fun and Stockport have been scoring them for fun. Granted they only got 1 on Saturday, but going to Halifax is a very different story from hosting Wealdstone. The -2 handicap looks worthy of a play.
Boreham Wood -1 2pts @ 6/4 with Betfred
Dagenham & Redbridge 4pts @ 10//11 with William Hill
Dagenham & Redbridge -1 1pt @ 13/5 with Betfred
Wrexham 1pt @ 6/4 with William Hill
Stockport -2 2pts @ 7/5 with Betfair

The penultimate weekend of action in League 1 and League 2 is here. We also have a full Scottish Premiership schedule as that season begins to draw to a close. Plenty of promotion, play-off, and relegation matters to resolve yet.
In League 1, Hull are already promoted and will be looking to seal the title. Peterborough failed to secure promotion in midweek so get another chance here. The play-offs are wide open with everyone realistically down to MK Dons still in with a chance. Bristol Rovers and Swindon saw their relegations to League 2 confirmed already and they could be joined by Northampton and Rochdale. The only other two sides that could get dragged into it are Wigan and AFC Wimbledon.
In League 2, we all saw the return of Michael Duff's legendary promotion dance as Cheltenham secured their place in League 1 next season. Cambridge and Bolton could join them this weekend. A number of teams are in play-off contention including Morecambe, Tranmere, Newport County, Salford City, Forest Green Rovers, and Exeter. It's probably just too much of a stretch for Carlisle now due to their inferior goal difference. Grimsby were officially relegated in midweek and they should be joined by Southend who, quite frankly, need a miracle to stay up.
The Scottish Premiership still has a few games left to play and the only thing confirmed so far is that Rangers are champions and Celtic will finish 2nd. Hibernian have also booked their place in the Europa Conference League next season (congratulations @allyhibs! ) but can Aberdeen join them? Or will the door open for Livingston to pull off the most unlikely of daylight robberies? Hamilton's situation at the bottom is looking increasingly desperate and then you have to say that the second relegation spot is between Ross County and Kilmarnock.
Give us your predictions for these games down below! 

Another profitable night on Tuesday which ended a very good April. Just the one bet for me on Saturday's National League action.
Wealdstone v Yeovil
Granted Yeovil have been pretty hopeless away from home, but then Wealdstone have just been shocking in general of late. They have been conceding goals for fun and have let in 7 and 6 goals in their last two home games. Yeovil have goals in them and I can see them covering the -1 handicap here.
Yeovil -1 2pts @ 9/5 with Betfred

What a stunning comeback from Barnet on Saturday to come from 2 down to win 3-2 with the score still being 2-1 in the 88th minute was incredible and it made for a very profitable afternoon. Tuesday night I have 3 bets.
Kings Lynn v Stockport
The Kings Lynn manager was moaning about the teams pitch after the 3-0 loss to Dagenham on Saturday and said that it didn't suit his team's passing style of football. It clearly isn't going to improve by Tuesday night and given how many goals Kings Lynn are conceding at the moment I can see them conceding a few here as well. In the of their last 4 games they have conceded 4 twice and the 3 on Saturday and they have picked up just 1 point in their last 5 games. One of the times they conceded 4 was in the reverse fixture 2 weeks ago when Stockport won 4-0. Stockport are making a late title push and have scored 12 goals in their last 4 games. The pitch shouldn't concern them and the 11/10 about them covering the -1 looks a good price.
Sutton v Barnet
Barnet were a double figure price and that has come in a little, but they are still value at 8/1. A few weeks ago this would have been an easy 3 points for the home side, but as Barnet showed yet again on Saturday they are a very different side under the new management team. With Sutton continuing to struggle to win games there is potential for a bit of an upset here. Sutton have only won twice in their last 8 games and have lost 2 of their last 3. I wouldn't put people off having the draw onside, but I am going to go with the away win myself.
Maidenhead v Weymouth
I am going to take a chance on Weymouth here. Granted their away form isn't great, but Maidenhead tired very badly in the 2nd half against Woking on Saturday. Now they were 2 up at the time so maybe the players thought the job was done, but even so it has to be a concern going into this game especially as Weymouth haven't played in two weeks. Therefore at the price I am happy to play as I would make them around 11/4.
Stockport -1 3pts @ 11/10 with Bet365
Barnet 1pt @ 8/1 with Bet365
Weymouth 1pt @ 17/4 with Bet365

Woking v Wrexham
Just the one bet for me on Saturday and I am keen on Wrexham to beat Woking. Wrexham have been weakened up front in the last couple of weeks, but then went and put 4 past Halifax on Tuesday night. That was a crucial win for them after losing to Notts County, Torquay and Stockport. This is certainly a drop in grade compared to those matches and as I mentioned in Tuesday's preview Woking are looking at next season already given they can't go up or down. 
Wrexham 2pts @ 11/8 with William Hill

Liverpool @1.5
Chelsea @1.53
35pts

I'm pleased to say that March was another profitable month which means every month of the season has seen a profit so far. From 13 bets there were just 4 winners, but there was still 7pts profit from 21 staked. The season total is 186.98pts profit from 291pts staked.

Hopefully April can be better than March was and we start with the Good Friday fixtures where I have 3 bets.
Notts County v Wrexham
This is the live game on BT Sport which kicks off at 12.30 and I am keen on Wrexham who look over priced. They scored some really good goals in the 3-0 victory over Bromley on Saturday and that continues their really good form where they are unbeaten in 7. Scoring goals had been their issue, but they have 17 in their last 10 so they are doing better on that front and they are playing better than their hosts. County have only managed to win twice in their last 9 league games and they were against Wealdstone and Yeovil. A change of manager hasn't seemingly seen any improvement in performance as they lost on penalties to Hornchurch in the FA Trophy and then lost to Aldershot in the league on Tuesday. I am dubious about the new manager who has no knowledge of Non-League football and he clearly hasn't been able to improve them in such a short space of time. I think the fact they have been scoring wonder goals to win games has masked the fact they haven't been performing that well at all. Wrexham should be no bigger than 7/4 for me so 5/2 makes plenty of appeal.
Barnet v Solihull Moors
It is hard to know why Paul Fairclough left Barnet after the Chesterfield defeat because they still haven't announced a new manager and at least they had improved in the first two games after he took charge. I can't help but think it is cost cutting as they don't really need a manager given they can't go down this season. Solihull were much better against Aldershot last Saturday even holding on with 9 men and then they easily beat Wealdstone on Tuesday. Barnet were poor again last week and I don't think any team should be odds against to beat them at the moment so 6/5 looks a really big price.
Bromley v Wealdstone
I was surprised when Bromley sacked their manager last week as it seemed worth giving him a chance to get them into the play-offs. Like Notts County it was a surprising choice of new manager as well, but he has the perfect first game in charge. Wealdstone are awful away from home. In their last 10 away games they have managed a draw against Barnet and Torquay, but in every other game they have lost by at least 2 goals. They have conceded 28 times and scored just 4. Bromley really ought to cover the handicap here and hopefully they can avoid getting a player sent off early on as they did when they hosted Barnet recently.
Wrexham 2pts @ 5/2 with William Hill
Solihull 4pts @ 6/5 with William Hill and Betfred
Bromley -1 2pts @ 13/8 with Betfred

Bolton @1.80

It has been a tough month although there have only been 20 bets so far and profit has been guaranteed for another month which not all Non-League tipsters can claim (including 1 who charges £600 a season). Saturday sees the FA Trophy quarter-finals and I have one bet there as well as a couple in the league.
Notts County v Oxford City
I thought I was unlucky not to get County beat in the last round against Havant, but the fact they changed their side so much was proof as to where the Trophy sits on their priority list this season. Oxford's season would end here if they lose and as I have mentioned plenty of times over the season Oxford have a very good side this term. They will clearly be up for this to try and keep their season going and I think they look a fair bet here especially if County rest players again.
Stockport v Chesterfield
As much as it pains me to keep backing Chesterfield, I am going to keep backing Chesterfield. They keep winning and whereas when Rowe was Gloucester's manager we couldn't keep a clean sheet, Chesterfield have actually got a very strong defensive record. They also have threats up front as well and Stockport just continue to under perform. I don't think there is much between these two sides at all and that makes Chesterfield's price good value. If we didn't have so much doubt about what teams are going to actually complete the season and how that would effect the league then I might have been tempted to back them for the title.
Hartlepool v Barnet
This game is on BT Sport on Saturday teatime and it should be an easy win for the home side. I thought Barnet were showing signs of improvement based on their win over Halifax last week so much so I backed them against Woking last Saturday. They lost to them and then were even worse against Kings Lynn on Tuesday night when losing 5-1. Liam Daly who left Gloucester to go to Barnet Tweeted to a fan after the game and the suggestion is that Flowers is not getting much backing and that he can't see anything improving whilst the current team is there. They now travel to a Hartlepool side who have won 7 on the bounce at home and in 5 of those games they would have covered the -1 handicap. With there seemingly not being any relegation then I can't see Barnet putting on much of a performance and Hartlepool should have plenty in hand as they try and stake a claim for the title. Odds against about them covering the -1 is a cracking bet for me.
Oxford City 1pt @ 4/1 with Bet365
Chesterfield 1pt @ 23/10 with William Hill
Hartlepool -1 2.5pts @ 6/5 with Betfred

Chesterfield have drifted out to 11/4 which is good if you haven't played yet.

Betis @2.10

Sunderland @2.05
45pts

This could well be the last preview of the season given the situation in the National League at the moment. With the North and South off for at least 2 weeks that leaves just the National League to bet in and I have 3 bets.
Bromley v Halifax
I know Bromley haven't been great at home this season, but Halifax were poor against Southport on Tuesday night and they have just taken Tahvon Campbell on loan from Cheltenham. He was on loan at Gloucester and I was glad to see the back of him as he wasn't great. I see the Halifax manager thinks he is in form, but 3 of his 5 goals came against Maldon and one of the others was a goalkeeper error. Bromley have the better side and hopefully they can put in a good home performance as they should be a bit shorter.
Dover v Solihull Moors
I know Dover aren't great, but apart from a couple of drubbings by Woking and Aldershot they haven't done that badly at home. They got a good draw in their last home league game as well against Boreham Wood. As I mentioned in midweek Solihull aren't great on their travels and at 9/2 I think Dover are worth an investment as I would probably make them around 5/2.
Woking v Maidenhead
In the last 10 games form table Maidenhead are joint top with Torquay averaging 2 points a game. Granted they have only won 2 of their last 6, but they only lost 2 of them and one of those was to Torquay. They have done well on their travels as well and although Woking are quite hard to beat at home they look too big a price. Woking have only won 1 league game in their last 6 as well so the away win is certainly value.
Bromley 1pt @ 7/5 with Bet365
Dover 1pt @ 9/2 with BetVictor
Maidenhead 1pt @ 12/5 with William Hill

Not been a great Festive period, but hopefully we can start the new year off to a winning start with these 6.
Weymouth v Eastleigh
Eastleigh have stopped scoring goals and although they had some good chances on Boxing Day in the reverse fixture they couldn't break the deadlock. Their game against Woking on the box wasn't overly exciting and again ended 0-0. Weymouth came out the wrong side of a 7 goal thriller on Monday against Torquay, but it was certainly a big step in the right direction following from the Eastleigh draw and a win in the FA Trophy against Maidenhead. 5/2 is too big a price for me on a home win.
Woking v Aldershot
I am going to go with Aldershot again. I did wonder if after winning the big derby game on Boxing Day might have an effect against Yeovil and it clearly did. Back to playing Woking again and I am expecting a better performance and the 5/2 should be around 7/4 for me.
Yeovil v Torquay
Yeovil were shocking in the reverse fixture on Boxing Day especially in defence and obviously they have won since as mentioned above. Torquay though will fancy their chances and even though they had to work hard to beat Weymouth they are a better team than Yeovil. I think they should be odds on so am happy to take odds against.
Hampton & Richmond v Dorking
I must admit I thought I got a bit lucky with Dulwich on Monday as Hampton going down to 10 really helped them. Hampton gave it their all in the 2nd half as well and missed a penalty. They deserved a point, but it did continue their poor home form and Dorking did everything but score against them on Boxing Day. I'm surprised Dorking aren't favourites as I think they will get revenge for the Boxing Day defeat.
AFC Fylde v Chorley
The home side are not in good form going into this. They have only one once in 6 league games and lost 3-1 in the reverse fixture on Boxing Day which Chorley deservedly won. Chorley obviously have a big FA Cup tie to look forward to and when I put them up to beat Peterborough I mentioned they were in a false position which they have been proving in the league. They haven't lost in 9 league games and have won 4 of their last 5. They look value to win this.
Kidderminster v Hereford
Granted Hereford were helped by a sending off on Boxing Day, but they still came from a goal down and Herford have only lost once in their last 6 league games now. They also beat Fylde in their previous league game. Kiddie are top of the last 10 form table, but they have lost 2 of their last 3 in the league and Hereford look over priced at 3/1.
