Barnet expected to win title on Saturday

Barnet travel to Northwich Victoria on Saturday in a game that could see them seal the Conference title. The Bees are 18 points clear of Aldershot and a win would return them back into the Football League. Barnet are the form side and their boss Paul Fairclough is set to be named manager of the month for March.

Northwich, however, will be hoping to bounce back after their 4-0 defeat at Hereford United last Monday.

Third placed Carlisle United travel to Farnborough Town whose manager Neil Sillett is reported to have left Cherrywood Road earlier today. The Cumbrians are on good form, winning their last five games. Boro on the other hand haven't won in 18 games and a win for the home side looks most unlikely.

Crawley Town have a must win game against fellow play-off challengers Accrington Stanley if they are to get back in with a chance. They are without defender Ian
Simpemba who is banned whereas Accrington's Paul Crighton is likely to be replaced in goal by Jon Kennedy who has been recalled from Whitton Albion after just two days. A victory for Crawley would help Hereford United as Stanley lie fifth in the table.

Of the other play-off contenders, Morecambe play Scarborough and Woking face Dagenham and Redbridge in what are likely to be tough games as both sides need victories to keep up the pressure on the top sides. Exeter travel to Canvey Island whilst Chris Wilder's Halifax Town, who have signed goalkeeper Matty Taylor from Hucknall, entertain bottom placed Leigh RMI at The Shay.

Aldershot are not in action this weekend.
