York – Rochdale

York, sitting third in the table with 11 points from three wins, two draws and a single loss while boasting a 13‑8 goal difference, will host bottom‑placed Rochdale, who have only four points after one win, one draw and four defeats and a –5 goal margin. The stark contrast in form suggests York will look to extend their unbeaten run and consolidate a top‑four position, whereas Rochdale will be desperate for a points‑boost to climb out of the relegation zone. Historically the two sides have rarely met, but York’s superior scoring record this season gives them a clear psychological edge. A win for York would push them within striking distance of the league leaders, while a surprise from Rochdale could spark a dramatic shift at the foot of the table.
