Games to watch from the National League this week
Barnet vs. Halifax Town
- Date: Saturday, 21 December
- Time: 3.00 p.m. GMT
Top of the table and unbeaten in their last eight games, the Bees are really buzzin' as we head into 2025!
Dean Brennan's team hosts Halifax Town, having thrashed bottom-placed Ebbsfleet last weekend and will be keen to keep York and Forest Green at bay in the promotion race.
It's difficult to know what type of performance you'll get from the Shayman who continue to be inconsistent but will hope to gain momentum after besting Aldershot last week in a 4-3 thriller that leaves them in nineth place in the league.
Sutton United vs. Tamworth
- Date: Saturday, 21 December
- Time: 3.00 p.m. GMT
Tamworth may be stealing the FA Cup limelight with their upcoming glamour tie with Tottenham, but their league form continues to frustrate.
Having rescued a point against promotion-chasing York last week, the Lambs were soundly beaten by Rochdale in midweek, and it leaves them staring at the wrong end of the table right now.
They go to a Sutton side, who are above them in the league, but saw their good run of form end last week as they were defeated by Altrincham.
Braintree Town vs. Oldham
Date: Saturday, 21 December
Time: 3.00 p.m. GMT
Oldham are one of the form sides in the division, without a defeat in seven, which is bad news for a Braintree side who currently sit in the bottom four.
Steve Pitt's men lost to Yeovil last weekend, and it's now three defeats in the last four for the Iron.
The Lactics, meanwhile, hope their good run and catapult them into the automatic promotion conversation.
They trail leaders Barnet by seven points but have two games in hand on the Bees.
