York City

WWLWWW 📈

York City come into this meeting following on from a 4-0 National League win versus Brackley in their last outing.

For York City, goals were scored by Josh Stones (18', 45'), Greg Olley (71') and Ollie Pearce (90').

A succession of outstanding showings from the York City defence has seen the number of goals they’ve conceded standing at 4 from their last 6 outings overall. Over that same time, the number of goals that they have scored themselves amounts to 16. That sort of pattern isn’t assured to be carried forward into this game, though.

Heading into this fixture, York City haven't been beaten by Gateshead when they have played them away from home in the previous 3 league games.

🤜🤛 Head to head

Looking at past results between these clubs stretching back to 02/01/2023 shows that these fixtures have not been kind to Gateshead.

A total of 17 goals were scored between them in this period, with 4 for The Tynesiders and 13 created by The Minstermen. That’s an average goals per game figure of 2.83.

The last league match between these clubs was National League match day 17 on 05/11/2025 which ended up with the score at York City 4-0 Gateshead.

The referee was James Bancroft.

📰 Team News: Gateshead

Regarding absentees, there’s just the sole fitness concern for the Gateshead boss Rob Elliot to be concerned about thanks to an otherwise robust set of players. Connor Pani (Achilles tendon rupture) won’t play.

ℹ️ Team News: York City

Thanks to a mainly healthy group, there is only a single fitness issue for the York City gaffer Stuart Maynard to contend with. Ollie Banks (Hamstring injury) won’t be in action.

💭 Prediction

Our thinking is that York City will, in all probability, dominate possession and create several successful chances.

At the same time, Gateshead might well find it a difficult task scoring goals of their own, although we do see them managing to get on the scoresheet as well here.

We can therefore see a pretty comfortable 1-3 winning margin for York City when the full-time whistle blows.
