Two sides in the bottom six of the National League go head to head on Tuesday night as Truro City play host to Eastbourne Borough.
Truro City were a real crowd favorite last season, as they finished third in the Southern South Non League Premier and gained promotion to the National League. Things have not gone well so far this season as the White Tigers currently sit in the bottom six. However, they will fancy their chances of getting three points on Tuesday after securing two wins from their last three outings.
Eastbourne Borough meanwhile are competing in this division for the tenth successive season. Adam Murray's side have never looked like a team in danger of relegation in recent years, but they are third from the bottom right now. Their recent form has been somewhat good though. They travel to the Politho Park with a run three consecutive league games without defeat, winning two and drawing one.
Truro City vs Eastbourne Borough Betting Tips: Under 2.5 goals
The hosts went without conceding in just one of their last six league outings but that game was at the Bolitho Park. Truro City's defensive record against Eastbourne isn't equally bad. The White Tigers conceded under 1.5 goals in each of the last two meetings between these two sides and bets on Under 2.5 goals were won in both matches.
Another reason to expect a close game on Tuesday is the fact that the recent games of Eastbourne Borough have been very close. Each of the last five games ended with under 2.5 goals and I think Tuesday's game will follow the same pattern.
- Best Tip: Under 2.5 goals
- Truro City vs Eastbourne Borough prediction: 1-0

Truro City team news
Head coach Paul Wotton is expected to resist the temptation to change the side that won against St Albans last weekend.
However, Adam Porter will push for a starting berth after coming off the bench to score the second goal in that game.
Andrew Neal's goal was his ninth for the season and the 30-year-old is expected to lead the line on Tuesday, while James Hamon will keep his place between the posts.

Eastbourne Borough team news
Stefan Vukoje has been out since August with a cruciate ligament injury and Tuesday's game will come too soon for the midfielder.
Brad Barry missed the win over Taunton Town through suspension, but the defender will be available for Tuesday's trip to Truro City.
A caution for Billy Vigar or Decarrey Sheriff would result in a one-match ban as both have already received four yellow cards this season.
