A look ahead tonight’s action….

This evening sees fixtures take place in both Step One and Step Two, with big consequences at either end of the table. 
In the National League, John Sheridan’s Chesterfield make the trip down to the capital to face a Barnet side who are sitting just one position above the Spireites in 17th place.
The Bees come into tonight’s game after suffering penalty heartbreak against AFC Fylde in the FA Trophy at the weekend and a run of five league games without a win has seen Darren Currie’s side slip down the table.
Meanwhile, despite losing out to Harrogate on Saturday, Chesterfield have secured impressive wins over both Fylde and Halifax in recent weeks to improve their survival prospects.
In the National League North, Ashton United, who are fresh off the back of a shock win at league leaders Chorley will be looking to claw themselves closer to safety against play-off chasing Kidderminster Harriers.
After beginning the season well, Chester appear to have run out of the steam over the past few weeks, with the Blues having gained just four points from their last six games.
This form has seen Anthony Johnson and Bernard Morley’s side fall out of the play-off positions but they have a good chance to return to winning ways tonight at home against mid-table Blyth Spartans.
As mentioned earlier, Chorley, who have spent virtually the entire season at the top of the table are now coming under a serve amount of pressure by the chasing pack.
Jamie Vermigolio’s side have lost three of their last four games and are now clinging onto the summit by their fingertips, with Stockport level on points and third placed Spennymoor gaining ground with each match that passes by.
However, Chorley will surely expect to pick up a result tonight against bottom of the table Nuneaton Borough, who are now 17 points adrift of safety.
Finally, in the National League South, the tantalising battle at the top will take another turn tonight with both Torquay United and Woking in action.
The Gulls, who went top at the weekend after thrashing Dulwich Hamlet, face 21st place East Thurrock United, while Alan Dowson’s side will travel down to Cornwall to play Truro City, who have picked up four points from their last four games.
