Sat 3 Oct: our 12 most confident calls across the non-league pyramid ⭐
⚽ Gateshead v Worthing (National League, 15:00)
Worthing win ★★★★☆
Gateshead's home form and five-game losing run are no match for a Worthing side unbeaten in six and scoring in every match this season.
⚽ Boreham Wood v Altrincham (National League, 15:00)
Boreham Wood win ★★★★☆
Boreham Wood's unbeaten home record, superior points-per-game and higher pre-match xG outweigh Altrincham's good overall form, whose away numbers are only middling.
⚽ Harrogate Town v AFC Hornchurch (National League, 15:00)
Harrogate Town win ★★★★☆
Harrogate's scoring record at home and Hornchurch's goalless, winless run on the road point firmly towards the hosts.
⚽ Stamford v Bromsgrove Sporting (Southern League Premier Division Central, 15:00)
Bromsgrove Sporting win ★★★★★
Stamford's pointless home record is matched against Bromsgrove's perfect away form this season, making the visitors clear favourites on current evidence.
⚽ Warrington Rylands v AFC Emley (Northern Premier League Premier Division, 15:00)
Warrington Rylands win ★★★★☆
Rylands' unbeaten run, superior points-per-game and home form stack up against an Emley side winless in six and struggling for goals.
⚽ Redcar Athletic v Alfreton Town (Northern Premier League Premier Division, 15:00)
Redcar Athletic win ★★★★☆
Redcar's ten-game unbeaten league run, stronger home record and higher pre-match xG outweigh Alfreton's inconsistent, alternating form.
⚽ Gainsborough Trinity v Curzon Ashton (Northern Premier League Premier Division, 15:00)
Curzon Ashton win ★★★★☆
Curzon Ashton's four-game winning run, superior pre-match xG and dominant head-to-head record outweigh a Gainsborough side mired in a scoreless home slump.
⚽ Leighton Town v Peterborough Sports (Southern League Premier Division Central, 15:00)
Peterborough Sports win ★★★★☆
Peterborough Sports' six-game unbeaten run, superior xG and points-per-game, and perfect away record outweigh Leighton Town's five-game losing streak and leaky defence.
⚽ Stratford Town v Alvechurch (Southern League Premier Division Central, 15:00)
Alvechurch win ★★★★☆
Alvechurch's eight-game unbeaten run and defensive solidity should prove too much for a Stratford Town side without a home win all season.
⚽ Anstey Nomads v Real Bedford (Southern League Premier Division Central, 15:00)
Real Bedford win ★★★★☆
Real Bedford's nine-game unbeaten run, perfect away record and higher pre-match xG outweigh Anstey's solid home form.
⚽ Burgess Hill Town v Maldon & Tiptree (Isthmian League Premier Division, 15:00)
Burgess Hill Town win ★★★★☆
Burgess Hill Town's unbeaten home record and superior pre-match xG, set against Maldon & Tiptree's four-game losing run and leaky defence, point to a home win.
⚽ Welling United v AFC Whyteleafe (Isthmian League Premier Division, 15:00)
Welling United win ★★★★☆
Welling's perfect home record and far superior pre-match xG outweigh Whyteleafe's dismal away form, making the hosts clear favourites.

⚽ Yeovil Town v Boston United (15:00)
Yeovil Town carry a four-game unbeaten run into Saturday, but Boston United arrive with the division's form figures turned on their head: dreadful at home, flying on the road. Huish Park hosts a genuine puzzle. #NationalLeague

Eastleigh haven't lost at home all season, but Woking arrive on Saturday having scored goals for fun of late despite stumbling on the road. Something has to give at the Silverlake. #NationalLeague

Bamber Bridge's home form has been a world away from their results on the road as Quorn arrive on Saturday still searching for consistency away from home. Expect goals at both ends at the Sir Tom Finney Stadium. #NPL

Lancaster City are winless in four at the Giant Axe, but Saturday's visitors arrive in freefall - eight games without a win and 14 goals shipped in five. Can Ilkeston Town find a response, or does the slide deepen? #NPL #LancasterCity

Hyde United haven't won in two but are hard to beat at Ewen Fields, while Stockton Town still haven't won away all season going into Saturday. Something will give on the road. #NPL #HydeUnited
