WREXHAM v TORQUAY UNITED

Football – England – National League Betting Tips

My next pick in the National League is between two former Football League clubs as Wrexham take on Torquay United at the Racecourse Ground with both teams needing all three points for their respective play-off and relegation campaigns.

Wrexham occupy fifth place and a position in the play-off pack, but they’ll be disappointed with their recent back-to-back draws against lowly Barrow in home and away fixtures over the Christmas period. These stalemates have cost the Welsh outfit valuable ground on the automatic promotion slot so they’ll be keen to get back to winning ways here today.

The Dragons are without a win in their last four league matches, but their form on home turf continues to be solid with an overall home record of  7-6-1  18/9 and are unbeaten in 13 matches since their opening home defeat to league leaders, Macclesfield Town.

Torquay United’s current plight is a sad one for another former Football League outfit who are now fighting a desperate relegation battle to avoid the drop down to the National League South and football oblivion.

With just two wins from their last ten matches overall, The Gulls sit bottom of the National League and are a massive 10 points adrift of Barrow and safety ahead of their trip to Wales this Saturday. In addition, their poor away record of  2-3-9  11/27 hasn’t done them many favours so far this season, and they look to be up against it when taking on Wrexham today.

Torquay have kept just two clean sheets on their travels so far this season, and they’re defence are likely to come under serious pressure here again.

My heart wants Torquay, but my head says Wrexham for this one.
