- Wealdstone impressed in the FA Trophy when beating Forest Green Rovers 3-0 away before being held 2-2 at Eastleigh in the league on Tuesday.

Key Players
-

- Ollie Pearce - Proficient goal-getter Ollie Pearce leads the line for Maynard’s men and has notched an astonishing 27 in 30 National League appearances, including five in his last five.
- Micah Obiero - Micah Obiero is the main goal threat for Wealdstone with five in 28 National League outings this season.

Betting Insights
- York City are red hot favourites in the bookmaker's eyes at 1.35 for Saturday’s National League game at Wealdstone, but the hosts are 7.37.
- Wealdstone’s record of conceding an average of 1.31 per game at their home ground.
- The Stags have let in 17 goals in 13 home games this term, so Over 2.5 goals at 1.39 looks the best bet.
Prediction
- A home win is highly unlikely, given York are undefeated away, but Noble’s men can keep it tight and force York to break through the defense.
- we prefer the goals markets here because of York’s ability to score at will and Wealdstone’s record of conceding an average of 1.31 per game at their home ground.
