Southport v Gateshead
• Southport are without a win in five games and most recently lost 2-1 at home to Kidderminster Harriers.

• Southport’s home record is middling. They have lost seven of their 16 games at Haig Avenue this season.
• The two sides drew 0-0 on opening day.
Spennymoor Town v Hereford
• Spennymoor host Hereford this weekend, looking to get their Playoff ambitions back on track after a chastening 4-1 defeat at Altrincham on Saturday.
