Games to watch from the National League this week 

Oldham Athletic vs. York City

  • Date : Thursday, 26 December 
  • Time : 5.30 p.m. GMT

The big game in the National League this week is Thursday's late offering as in-form Oldham host top of the table York. 

York returned to top spot on Saturday, thanks to a 3-0 win over Southend but only goal difference separates them and Barnet in the tight promotion race. 

That race is one Oldham very much want to be part of, and are only five points off the top now, with two games in hand on their opponents.

If Micky Mellon's team can get a fifth win in a row here, then Oldham are right in the promotion conversation. 

Gateshead vs. Hartlepool 

  • Date : Thursday, 26 December 
  • Time : 3.00 p.m. GMT

A Boxing Day meeting between two clubs in the North-East of the country, with both in a rich vein of form. 

Gateshead are firmly in the play-off chase, suffering only defeat in their last five and coming into the game after a 4-1 thrashing of bottom-placed Ebbsfleet. 

However, Lennie Lawrence is using all his experience to guide Hartlepool, and their win over Yeovil on Saturday continued their unbeatean run. 

Tamworth vs. Forest Green 

Date : Thursday, 26 December 
Time:  3.00 p.m. GMT

Forest Green dropped two more points in their promotion bid at the weekend when they drew their third game in five against Aldershot. Steve Cotterill's side's are now two points off the leading pack as they travel to Tamworth. 

FA Cup heroes Tamworth have found form at the right time as their big fixture draws closer.

Nicking a point against York before their away win over Sutton on Saturday.
