Torquay v FC Halifax Town: Preview
If Barrow beat Ebbsfleet, Town are not safe whatever happens on Saturday, but Town would be safe if Barrow lose and they beat Torquay.

Hide AdOnly Guiseley have won fewer home games in the National League than Torquay, while only Chester and Guiseley have scored fewer home goals.
Gary Owers’ side are in mixed form, having won two, lost two and drawn one of their last five games.
Halifax, who are now 12th in the table, are the joint-lowest scorers away from home in the division, but have lost only once since manager Jamie Fullarton was appointed.
Town’s away record does leave a bit to be desired though, with only one win in their last nine matches on the road.
