Competition: National League
Market: Brackley Town win
Odds: 5/6 @ BetUS
Sat within touching distance of the play-off places, Brackley will welcome Truro to Northamptonshire on Tuesday night.
Starting with the hosts, although Brackley might have only made their National League return this season, Gavin Cowman’s men have certainly gained a reputation for their rugged approach. Last seen over the weekend snatching a late 1-0 victory at home against Sutton, the Saints should be smelling the chance to secure consecutive National League wins on Tuesday night. In fact, the fifth-tier newcomers open their return to Northamptonshire sat within touching distance of finding a shock route into the play-off places. Clinching a 2-1 National League Cup victory against Manchester United’s U21s earlier in the month, Brackley find the mood in their camp at a real high. Getting their National League return underway with a 1-0 win against Eastleigh on August 9th, Tuesday’s hosts have lost just a pair of their first 10 appearances across all competitions. It should also be noted, continuing on from last season, Cowman’s side have suffered just a single competitive defeat at St. James’ Park since the end of March.
As for the visitors, while Truro might have made their own National League return this season, the Tinners have drastically struggled to deal with the leap up in opposition. Only putting four points on the board from any of their first 10 appearances, the Cornwall-based outfit sit rock-bottom of the table and it is no secret that they are regarded as a standout relegation contender this time around. Last seen over the weekend putting in another worrying performance as they slumped to a 4-0 drumming at the hands of Scunthorpe, John Askey’s side have lost all of their previous three consecutive National League appearances by an aggregate score of 8-0. Hit with a routine 3-0 defeat against Carlisle earlier in the month, Tuesday’s guests have also shown some major defensive issues. Despite getting September underway with a dramatic 2-2 stalemate at home against nine-man Aldershot, Truro have already shipped 19 goals so far this season.
