Solihull Moors v Maidenhead Utd

Solihull Moors vs Maidenhead Preview

Third placed Solihull Moors will be looking to take advantage of home surroundings on Saturday afternoon when the west midlands club return to their ARMCO Arena for this upcoming encounter against a Maidenhead United who find themselves perched just above the relegation zone ahead of this weekend's action in the National League.

Solihull have been dealt just two defeats throughout this season's National League campaign to date which came in recent losses to Aldershot and Southend United but the hosts quickly returned to their earlier form which has brought about recent wins against Wealdstone and Dagenham & Redbridge along with a point gained in a draw with second placed Barnet.

The Moors made a solid start to this season as Andrew Whing's side put together a stubborn and resilient looking 14-match unbeaten run in the non-league top flight which consisted of eight wins and six draws and they are once again amongst the front-runners for at least a play-off spot if not automatic promotion.

Solihull have also experienced just the single defeat in their opening nine games at home this term and having despatched the likes of Dorking Wanderers, AFC Fylde, Rochdale and Wealdstone, The Moors will be confident they can take the spoils against Maidenhead United as well.

Recent back-to-back wins at home have helped lift Maidenhead United out of the bottom four of the National League for the time being following victories against Eastleigh and Halifax which were both recorded at their York Road Stadium, helping the visitors to a slender one-point cushion above the relegation zone.

However, although Maidenhead have relieved some of the pressure for now, the Berkshire outfit now face the daunting prospect of attempting to keep high-flying Solihull Moors quiet in their own backyard on Saturday afternoon.

Having failed to win any of their preceding 13 league matches prior to recording their recent back-to-back wins, this looks a colossal task ahead of Maidenhead United and manager, Alan Devonshire, if he's to guide his side to even a point, let alone all three at the ARMCO Arena.

Seven defeats within these past 13 matches suggests Maidenhead have their work cut out if they're to at least avoid defeat here but having managed to capture just one win on their travels from their opening nine away games this season, the writing looks to be firmly on the wall for The Magpies.

In addition, the bigger picture shows Maidenhead have picked up just one win from their last 15 outings in the National League as well, slipping to 10 defeats in the process.

Solihull Moors v Maidenhead United Verdict
