Prediction: 2-1
Salford
Buoyed by a 3-1 win over Walsall, Harrogate will look to give fans yet another reason for celebration when the take on Salford City on Matchday 17. Harrogate quickly bounced back from a 1-0 loss to Bristol Rovers, with the team keeping their automatic promotion hopes alive. Simon Weaver’s troops aim to regain their spot in top three, but the game against Salford City will be anything but a walk in the park for the hosts.
The Lions, on the other hand, suffered a dip in form, with the team failing to win the previous four league fixtures. Salford City do not seem to be at their sharpest at the moment, and seeing that Harrogate regained a much-needed confidence at the weekend, home win should be considered. Luke Armstrong, who scored his ninth goal of the season in the triumph over Walsall, will be the man to watch in the home team.
