ℹ️ Team News: York City

Nearly everyone is up for selection, with just the lone fitness concern for the York City gaffer Stuart Maynard to contend with thanks to an almost full-strength squad. Ollie Banks (Hamstring injury) is out of contention.

📋 Team News: Altrincham

In an otherwise full-strength group, there is only the lone fitness worry for the Altrincham boss Neil Gibson to contend with. Otis Khan (unknown injury) won’t be in action.

💡 Prediction

In our view, York City are likely to be able to create a good number of chances & successful shots on target.

However, Altrincham are also probably going to find it difficult to get a goal of their own but we can see them hitting back at some stage here.

We’re tipping a decent 3-1 win for York City come full-time.
