"Starting with the hosts, while Chelmsford might have finished 17 points adrift of the play-off places last season as they spent a large section of the 2024/25 campaign sat in National League South limbo, the Clarets have made a string of improvements since returning from the summer break. Getting proceedings underway with a 1-0 win against Horsham back on August 9th, Angelo Harrop's men should find the mood in their camp at a continued high."
"As for the visitors, while some in Farnborough's camp might have opened up the new campaign dreaming of the chance to mount their own play-off charge, the Yellows are in the midst of what has become a real struggle. Eventually forced to settle for a frantic 3-3 stalemate against Tonbridge over the weekend, Spencer Day's side have recorded just a single victory from any of their first six National League South appearances."
Chelmsford City have shown clear improvement since the summer, opening with a 1-0 win over Horsham and recently beating Chesham 2-1. The Clarets have suffered just one defeat in six National League South fixtures and have won all three home matches by a combined 5-2. Farnborough have struggled, managing only one victory from six and settling for a 3-3 draw with Tonbridge. The Yellows have conceded three goals in each of their last three outings and have allowed more than 2.5 goals in four of five recent matches. A home victory at Melbourne Stadium is the projected outcome.
