Darlington v Halifax
Could be an interesting game with leaders Halifax travelling to Darlington who have the third best home record in the division with nine wins form their 12 matches to date. So Halifax will need to be at their best and not take this game lightly otherwise they could come unstuck.
Halifax though will be buoyed though by their win against Waterloo and be determined not to slip up after that win.

Macclesfield v Liverpool St Helens
10th placed Macclesfield will be looking to finish their first season of National League rugby with a win as they entertain already relegation Liverpool St Helens.
Having picked up just the one win in their last six matches they have slipped a little recently and a victory could see them move up a place above Darlington.
LSH have lost their last four and would like to go out with a win after a terribly disappointing season.
Macc’s home form has been the reason for their good season with seven wins and a draw from their 12 matches and 15 of their 20 points have been won at home.
LSH on the road have been poor with just a win and a draw from their 12 matches to date.

Preston Grasshoppers v Fylde
Already relegated Preston Grasshoppers end the season with a Lancashire derby against Fylde. Hoppers will be keen to make it back to back wins as they look forward to playing outside the national leagues for the first time ever. A win would see them make it three wins out of four to end the season playing winning rugby, as life in Powergen North One will be tough next season.
Fylde are already guaranteed sixth place in the league table and are finishing the season strongly after a poor opening.
Team news:
Prediction: Away win by 10 points.
