Hornchurch
- Hornchurch have won five of their six home games in the National League 2026/2027, losing once and conceding an average of 0.33 goals.
- The Urchins are looking for a win after cruising to a 2-0 home win over Eastleigh and a 4-0 away victory at Uxbridge in FA Cup Qualification.
Yeovil
- Yeovil have won three of their away games in the National League 2026/2027, drawing twice and losing once, scoring an average of 2.17 goals.

Betting Insights
- Daryl McMahon's Hornchurch are set up in a compact 4-2-3-1 system, with the aim of defending well and hitting opponents on the counter.
- In the National League 2026/2027, Yeovil are fourth with 25 points from 13 games while Hornchurch are ninth with 21 points from the same number of matches.
- The visitors are therefore a slight favorite at 2.49, but with a superior defensive record at home than the divisional average, the hosts are a tough team to break down so this could stay tight until late in the game.
Key Players
- Dominic Poleon has chipped in with three goals in the last five games, while Joseph Kizzi is the Urchins' main danger man with three in nine National League 2026/2027 games.
- Luke McCormick, with six goals in eight National League 2026/2027 outings, looks a better bet than any of his teammates to get on the scoresheet at odds of around 4/1.
Prediction
- The Glovers have won their last three and drawn two of their previous five in all competitions and can win this game if they maintain their current levels.
- Billy Rowley is more of a possession-based coach and will try to control the midfield and tempo of the game, which suggests a narrow away win is likely if Yeovil keep their sharpness in the final third.
