Day 30: We're backing Darlington to draw against York at [3.45]
A clash between York City and Darlington may not be the most glamorous way to start a week of Champions League football, but with little to choose between the sides, everything looks set for a close encounter of the non-league kind.
After the resignation of Martin Foyle on Friday, York City head into this game with caretaker bosses Andy Porter and Steve Torpey still at the helm after guiding the Minstermen to a 3-1 win over Tamworth at the weekend.
Darlington also won at the weekend against Southport, extending their unbeaten run to seven games.
Despite their 5-0 hammering at Mansfield Town in the week, York City have been in very decent form. That was only their second defeat in ten games, and they haven't lost at Bootham Crescent since their first game of the season against Kidderminster - they haven't even conceded a goal in their previous four matches on home soil.
Darlington have not won an away game all season. But they're also yet to lose one. That's five straight games they've had to share the points with their hosts With only two points separating the teams after 11 games, things couldn't be much closer. We like the look of the [3.45] for Darlington to make it six straight away draws.
Our bet: We're backing Darlington to draw against York at [3.45], meaning that - before factoring in commission - we stand to win £24.50. The same punt pays out just £23 with William Hill. Sign up for a new account now and have losing bets up to a total of £30 refunded for a week.
