York City welcome Solihull Moors to the LNER Community Stadium in a match that highlights their diverging seasons. York City will be keen to continue their climb up the standings, while Solihull Moors are aiming to reignite their campaign.
York City are currently enjoying a rich vein of form, having gone undefeated in their last seven outings and finding the back of the net in their last four. Their strong start sees them sitting in a comfortable 6th position with 15 points, having scored 15 goals and conceded just 6.
Solihull Moors, by contrast, find themselves in 20th place with 7 points. They have struggled for consistency, securing only one win in their opening nine games, scoring 11 goals but conceding a worrying 18. However, they travel to York on a modest two-game unbeaten streak, having also scored in both of those matches.
Historically, clashes between these two sides have been closely fought. Over the past three seasons, they have met six times, with each team claiming two victories and two draws. York City hold a slight edge in goals scored, with 10 to Solihull Moors’ 7. Last season saw York City dominate, winning both matches convincingly. They secured a 3-0 victory away in September, followed by a 2-0 home win in April, with Cameron John and Dipo Akinyemi on the scoresheet.
A victory for York City would cement their place in the playoff positions and extend their impressive unbeaten run, boosting morale and building a strong platform for the season. For Solihull Moors, a win would be priceless, providing a much-needed confidence boost and potentially lifting them away from the lower end of the league table. A draw would likely favour York City more, allowing them to maintain their unbeaten streak, while Solihull Moors would probably view it as a positive step as they strive to turn their season around.
