It's top v bottom at Crown Meadow when all conquering Lowestoft Town host Harlow Town who haven't played since their 1-1 draw with Ware on Boxing Day. The trawlerboys went 0-1 down to Romford on Saturday but came back to emphatically win 6-1. It's no surprise bwin.com make the home side 1/5 hot favourites with a shock away win at 7/1 and the draw at 19/4.
East Thurrock United will want to get back to winning ways after loosing their 2nd home game on the trot to Great Wakering Rovers on Saturday. Rover's won the match with 70th and 88th minute goals. Leyton who played pretty football without troubling Town on Saturday are the visitors. Like Lowie East Thurrock are strong favourites for this match at 7/20 with the draw being offered at 7/2 and a Leyton win at 5/1.
Two teams who got surprise results on Saturday in Northwood and GWR face each other in Middlesex. The Wood rode their luck in the opening section of their match with Concord who missed some good chances. The visitors then tore up the form book at Fortress Thames Road and ran out 1-4 winners which is undoubtedly one of the results of the season so far. Rovers who put their play-off tilt back on track by winning at ETU as above but have stuttered of late with the excellent victory being their first in six matches. Northwood are unbeaten in three matches and themselves could have a say in the end of season play-off shake up will only be 2 points behind GWR should they win this match. A home win is 11/10 with the draw being 5/2 and an away win at 17/10.
Lastly, Ware play host to Concord Rangers at Wodson Park. Much improved Ware who will finish much higher than their current position won 3-2 after going behind to Ilford on Saturday. This showed Tony Faulkner has instilled some fighting spirit to his side and in Ryan Wade (4 goals in 7 league appearances so far) they posses a much admired goal-threat. Concord who seem to struggle away (only won 40% of games) from home also have an exceptional forward in Lyle Taylor (13 goals in 21 games) so expect goals in Hertfordshire. Ware are a value price for a win at 53/20 with Rangers favourites at 3/4 and the draw being 5/2.
The cold end unsurprisingly predicts Lowestoft Town and East Thurrock United will get comfortable home wins by at least 2 or 3 goals. Northwood's victories at Wingate & Finchley and Concord Rangers are not to be underestimated as visiting teams to The Harry Abrahams Stadium and Thames Road rarely leave with all three points so I think they'll have enough to see off GWR. The game between Ware and Concord is more difficult to predict as the away side are a bit topsy-turvy on the road and the home side are still getting used to a new manager despite some good results of late including the 2-2 draw at home to Lowestoft Town in a game they should of won. I can see this being a scoring-draw or Ware nicking it 2-1 or 3-2.
Finally, Good Luck to Maldon Town who face Colchester United in the Essex Senior Cup in their re-arranged game on Wednesday night.
