Hartlepool United perform at a high level so far being 4th in the table. Solihull Moors can look both up and down from their 14th position.

Insights:
  • Hartlepool United is in the best form (5-0-1)
  • Hartlepool United have scored at least twice as many goals at home as Solihull Moors have scored away.

It’s a hectic schedule for the away team, as they were in action only three days ago in the National League. That game was also an away game, at Eastleigh. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary.

The draw against Eastleigh came from a losing position. The Solihull Moors manager J. Shan brought on J. Sbarra as a substitute and the player scored to make the scores level.
