Halifax 3/4 to beat Kings Lynn in Saturday’s National League showdown

Competition: National League

Market: Halifax win

Odds: 3/4 @ 888sport

Hoping to make an immediate return to winning ways this weekend, Halifax will make the trip to Kings Lynn on Saturday afternoon.

Starting with the hosts, slumping back to losing ways earlier in the week, it appears that Kings Lynn are freefalling their way out of the National League. In their 34 fifth-tier matchups so far this season, they have recorded just five wins, six draws and 23 defeats, scoring 32 and conceding 65 in return. Managing to muster a points tally of 21 and opening this weekend’s fixtures sat 10 points adrift of safety, it should also be noted that they hold the third-worst defensive tally in the division. As for their recent run of results, last seen getting hit with a 3-0 loss at home against Stockport, Kings Lynn have managed to win just one of their previous 10 matchups. Likewise, it’s also worth highlighting that Saturday’s hosts have collected just a single point from any of their last five National League home fixtures.

As for the visitors, while Halifax might have seen their eye-catching winning run come to an abrupt end last time out, they are still cruising towards a play-off spot. In their 33 National League matchups, they have recorded 20 wins, six draws and seven defeats, scoring 51 and conceding 26 in return. Managing to muster a points tally of 66, they open this weekend’s fixtures sat third in the standings and holding a commanding 10-point buffer from dropping out of the top-seven. As for their recent run of results, despite being last seen getting hit with a 3-1 defeat against Wrexham, they have still won five of their last six National League contests. In a showdown between two sides battling it out at opposite ends of the table, we’re backing an away victory for Halifax here.
