York City welcome Fleetwood Town at LNER Community Stadium, York, North Yorkshire on Tuesday, Dec 29 at 8:45 PM in a League 2 fixture that's tighter on paper than the positions suggest — just 2 points split them in the table.

York City come into this fixture in mixed form (2W 1D 2L). Fleetwood Town travel out of form (1W 2L recently), which may hand the initiative to the hosts. York City won their last outing, while Fleetwood Town suffered defeat — home advantage backed by momentum.

Despite playing at home, York City face a side that has dominated this fixture historically. Fleetwood Town have won 5 of 10 encounters, with 3 draws. Their last encounter ended in a 0–0 draw.

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