Spalding United welcome Brackley Town at Sir Halley Stewart Field, Spalding, Lincolnshire on Tuesday, Oct 27 at 8:45 PM in a National League – North fixture that's tighter on paper than the positions suggest — just 2 points split them in the table.

Spalding United come into this fixture in good form (3W 0D 2L recently). Brackley Town travel in mixed form (2W 1D 2L), which may hand the initiative to the hosts. Spalding United head into this on the back of a defeat, while Brackley Town arrive off a win — momentum clearly with the visitors.

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