Truro vs Wealdstone - National League

Wealdstone Win

Match Result

Reason for Tip

The visitors Truro come in-to the match in awful form, losing all seven of their previous seven matches. Within the previous five head-to-head matches the visitors Wealdstone have a perfect record, winning all five games.

⭐ Bet of the Day

Truro vs Wealdstone – Wealdstone to Win

Truro arrive in awful form, losing all seven of their previous seven matches. Confidence is extremely low and their defensive record continues to cost them games.

Wealdstone have dominated this fixture historically, winning all five of the previous five head-to-head meetings. With stronger form and clear superiority, they are fancied to make it six in a row.

TipMan Verdict: Strongest angle on the card.
Pick: Wealdstone to Win
