Walton & Hersham vs Harrow Borough prediction 28.03.2024

• Competition: Southern League South Division
• Date: Thursday, 28th March 2024
• Kickoff: 20:00 UK / 21:00 CET
• Venue: Elmbridge Xcel Sports Hub (Walton-on-Thames)

On Thursday evening, a playoff-chasing Walton & Hersham will face off against a relegation contender, Harrow, at Elmbridge Xcel Sports Hub in Walton-on-Thames. 

Walton & Hersham are constantly improving under the new owners. They won three promotions in a row and are now looking for their fourth. Currently, the Swans are in 6th place, just one point away from the playoffs, although with a game played more than 5th-placed Merthyr Town. Still, it seems they are in a good position because they will mostly face teams from mid or bottom of the league's table in the remaining six rounds. 

Harrow Borough had an interesting last season. They should have been relegated after finishing 19th, but since Metropolitan Police accepted voluntary relegation, the Boro got the opportunity to compete again in the Southern League South Division. Unfortunately, it seems they won't be as lucky this year, considering they are in 21st place, 11 points away from the safe zone. With only seven rounds left, and because they will face off against really good teams, we see them as one of the primary candidates for relegation. 

Walton & Hersham vs Harrow Borough pick: Walton & Hersham to win and cover the -1.5 AH spread

Walton & Hersham are in good form, winning seven points in the last three games and scoring eight goals. At home, the Swans have had a considerably better through the season. They have had a 55.6% win rate at their pitch, compared to only 33% away from it.

Harrow Borough lost back-to-back games vs Hungerford and Gosport with a 1:7 goal difference, and they will probably give up on the season since they have very little chance of securing survival. 

In the previous h2h game, Walton & Hersham won 4:1 away from home. Considering the last h2h game, the difference in form, and the motive, we firmly believe that the Swans should secure a comfortable home win against the Boro.
