Merthyr Town welcome Buxton at Penydarren Park, Merthyr Tydfil on Saturday, Mar 20 at 4:00 PM in a National League – North fixture that's tighter on paper than the positions suggest — just 1 point split them in the table.

Merthyr Town come into this fixture in mixed form (1W 2D 1L). Buxton travel out of form (1W 2L recently), which may hand the initiative to the hosts.

Verdict: Little separates these two on form or history. Home advantage could be the deciding factor — a narrow Merthyr Town win or a draw looks most likely.
