Royston Town host Ware at Garden Walk on Tuesday 3 November at 19:45 GMT in a Southern League Central Division fixture that pitches a high-scoring home side against an away team struggling to keep goals out.
Royston have won their last three league matches and scored 15 goals across their last five. Ware have taken eight points from their last five games and conceded six in that period, giving the visitors a better recent defensive record than their season total suggests.

Ware (away). Ware occupy 19th place with 12 points from 13 league matches. Across the season they have scored 18 and let in 30. In their most recent five league matches Ware have played 5, winning 2, drawing 2 and losing 1 for 8 points, scoring 8 and conceding 6 in that period.

Talking points
- Royston’s recent scoring: 15 goals in five league games is a strong return for the hosts. Ware have conceded six in their last five, so maintaining that improved defensive record will be important to their chances.
- Can Ware stop conceding? Ware’s season total of 30 goals conceded in 13 matches underlines a defensive problem that stretches beyond a single run of results — tightening that record will be Ware’s priority if they are to take anything from Garden Walk.
THE FULL BREAKDOWNDive deeper into the statsCorners, scoring first, late goals and head-to-head
90-minute pick: Royston Town to win. Royston’s fourth-place position, three consecutive league wins and 15 goals across their last five matches give them the edge. Ware’s improved recent results suggest the visitors can be competitive, but we favour the hosts at Garden Walk.
