WEALDSTONE, England (Interstat) — Two National League sides trending in opposite directions meet Tuesday when Wealdstone hosts Morecambe at Grosvenor Vale.

Wealdstone (2-1 winners over Brackley Town on Feb. 24) has won two of its last three in the league. Morecambe arrives reeling, having lost 1-0 at home to York City this past Saturday. That defeat snapped a brief two-match unbeaten run for the Shrimps, who are winless in their last five league outings (0-3-2).

A statistical projection by Interstat forecasts a 2-1 victory for the home side.

Morecambe’s recent form reveals stark defensive struggles. In its last 10 matches across all competitions, the team has conceded 24 goals, including heavy defeats like a 5-1 loss at Southend United and a 6-2 thrashing at Kidderminster. A 4-4 draw at Gateshead on Feb. 25 showcased offensive capability but persistent fragility at the back.

In contrast, Wealdstone has shown recent resilience, following a 3-0 loss at Sutton United with its victory over Brackley. However, consistency has been an issue; the Stones have not recorded consecutive wins since late December.

The matchup presents a critical opportunity for both clubs in the congested National League table. Morecambe will be desperate to stop its slide and find a result on the road, while Wealdstone aims to build momentum ahead of a challenging March schedule.

Following this fixture, Wealdstone travels to Braintree Town on Saturday. Morecambe continues its road stretch at Sutton United on March 7.
