Wimborne Town welcome Basingstoke at The Cuthbury, Wimborne, Dorset on Monday, Mar 29 at 4:00 PM in a Southern League Premier – South fixture that's tighter on paper than the positions suggest — just 1 point split them in the table.

Wimborne Town come into this fixture drawing too many games (3D in last 5). Basingstoke travel in mixed form (2W 2D 1L), which may hand the initiative to the hosts.

Despite playing at home, Wimborne Town face a side that has dominated this fixture historically. Basingstoke have won 5 of 8 encounters, with 1 draws. Their last encounter ended in a 1–1 draw. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 3.0 per game in recent meetings.

Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Wimborne Town a slight edge, but Basingstoke are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
