- Competition: England - National League
- Date: Tuesday, 18th, March 2024
- Kickoff: 19:45 UK / 20:45 CET
- Venue: Moss Lane (Altrincham)
With contrasting objectives but the same desperation for points, Altrincham and Wealdstone will meet at Moss Lane in an important National League clash on Tuesday.
Altrincham's struggles deepened as they fell to a late 1-2 defeat at the hands of Aldershot on home turf, marking their third league setback on the trot, and this result saw them drop out of the playoff positions, making a turnaround in fortunes crucial if they are to keep their promotion push alive.
In contrast, Wealdstone have slightly boosted their chances of getting out of the drop zone after pulling off a phenomenal turnaround in Saturday'action, fighting back from three goals down to salvage a point in a spectacular six-goal draw against Eastleigh, leveling up on points with Dagenham & Red, who are last in the safety zone.
Altrincham vs Wealdstone Betting Tips : OVER 2.5
With neither side displaying much stability in recent weeks, avoiding a pick on the winner makes sense, yet the prospect of an open, action-packed showdown filled with goals appears far more predictable. The defensive line of Altrincham has been leaking goals, which has been a major factor in their inconsistent form recently, with at least two goals conceded in six of their last seven outings in all competitions. The defensive issues and gaps that have emerged for Altrincham are clear, but what can be said about Wealdstone's defense, which has been completely torn apart in their recent outings, with a dramatic 3-3 draw against Eastleigh coming only after back-to-back crushing 1-4 defeats to Tamworth and Rochdale. Recently, the Stones have found themselves caught in a free-scoring frenzy, wrapping up each of their last four matches in the fifth-tier division with a minimum of five goals, and we firmly believe they’ll continue this exciting trend against Altrincham, a side with whom they’ve had spectacular encounters, as three of their previous H2H games ended with five or more goals, including the reverse fixture in December, which ended in a gripping 3-3 draw.

Altrincham team news
After first-choice goalkeeper Ethan Ross ended his season early in February, left-back Eddy Jones suffered a season-ending ACL injury, leaving the duo as the only absentees for Alty.
Rob Laiton was brought in during the winter transfer window to fill in for the absent Ethan in goal, but manager Phil Parkinson may soon replace him, as the 35-year-old has been struggling with his performances lately.

Wealdstone team news
In contrast, Wealdstone will head into Tuesday's league action with a clean bill of health, giving manager Neil Gibson nearly all of his key players at his disposal.
Recently brought in on loan for the remainder of the 2024-25 National League season from Lincoln City, 28-year-old striker Tyler Walker made a memorable debut by scoring and assisting in a sensational 3-3 draw against Eastleigh from the bench, pushing for a starting spot here.
