Sholing’s home record so far has been poor
Sholing have started their Southern League Premier Division South 2026 campaign in poor fashion and sit 11th with 4pts from 3 matches. Chertsey Town have started their campaign in far superior fashion and find themselves sitting top of the division with 7pts from 3 fixtures. These two sides met in the Southern League Premier Division South 2025/2026 and Sholing destroyed Chertsey 4-0 at home on that occasion.
Sholing have a mixed record in their 5 most recent fixtures with 2 wins, 2 draws and 1 defeat. Sholing's most recent 3 results have been a reaction to their poor start on the road. Their most recent 3 games have seen them lose 1-2 at home to Bath City, win 0-1 at Poole Town and draw 0-0 at Hanwell Town. Sholing will look to build up play out wide, will look for set piece opportunities and are most likely to control the game late on, hoping to play into their big target man.
Chertsey Town are in much better form than their opponents going into Saturday's game and will have much more confidence of taking a result at the Mackoy Stadium. Chertsey's most recent 3 matches have seen them win 0-1 at Gloucester City, win 4-1 at home to Berkhamsted and then draw 1-1 at home to Yate Town. Chertsey are a more pragmatic side than Sholing and prefer to sit deep and defend. They will allow their opponents the majority of territory and look to hit on the break and from set pieces.
A close call at best
Sholing are slight odds-on favourites at 24/25, but we feel Chertsey Town at 231/100 should be more favoured than the draw at 123/50, so this will be a narrow selection. We think that the difference in style of play will see Sholing look to break down a Chertsey block and The Curfews look to get forward on the counter and from dead ball situations. If Sholing can control the territory and Chertsey are disciplined enough to stay compact then both teams not to score looks a live bet at 117/100. We feel that we are going to edge this and Chertsey have failed to win their last 2 away games against Sholing so the Boatmen still have the psychological edge. We will swerve the win to nil markets and go for Sholing to win and under 3.5 goals as it gives us a bit more of a home edge rather than a blowout.
