Competition: National League

Market: Boston United double chance

Odds: 1/1 @ 1xBet

Hoping to find a route into the top-half of the National League standings on Wednesday night, Boston will travel to Manchester when they meet Altrincham.

Starting with the hosts, while some in Altrincham’s camp might have opened up the 2025/26 campaign with their sights set on mounting a play-off charge, the Robins have drastically failed to find any kind of stability. Last seen suffering a shock FA Cup exit away at Slough as they fell to a 2-1 loss away from Moss Lane, interim boss Neil Gibson has a major job on his hands. Scrapping it out at the foot of the National League standings, the Manchester-based outfit face what is a real must-win showdown here. Including a 3-1 drumming at home against Woking on October 18th, Altrincham have collected just two points from any of their previous eight consecutive National League appearances – a rut that stems all the way back to September 6th. Facing what should be another stern examination here, the Robins have also gained an unwanted reputation for their glaring issues on home soil. In fact, Wednesday’s hosts have lost all of their previous four straight National League matchups at Moss Lane by an aggregate score of 9-4.

As for the visitors, although Boston might travel to Manchester on Wednesday night pencilled in as a landslide underdog, the Pilgrims could be springing the chance to complete another upset on the road. Last seen putting in a stellar performance as they secured a deserved 3-1 victory away at Tamworth, Graham Coughlan’s men will be dreaming of a repeat performance in midweek. Although the Lincolnshire-based outfit might have only just clung to their National League status last season, Boston open Wednesday’s showdown sat within touching distance of skyrocketing their way into the top-half of the table. Getting October underway with another stellar 3-1 win against Gateshead, Coughlan’s side have suffered just a single defeat from any of their previous seven consecutive National League appearances – a run that stems back to September 24th. It should also be highlighted, the former Newport boss has seen his squad lose just one of their last six straight matchups away from Moss Lane.

Bet: Boston United double chance against Altrincham 1/1 for Wednesday’s National League contest @ 1xBet
