What we said beforehand
Aldershot host Yeovil at their ground in the National League on 15 September 2026. Aldershot sit sixth in the 24-team table with 14 points from seven games and a +4 goal difference, just one point behind Southend United and two ahead of Forest Green Rovers. Yeovil are ten places lower, in tenth, with 11 points and a +1 goal difference, a single point behind Sutton United and level with Eastleigh. Both clubs are looking to improve their positions, but Aldershot have a clearer shot at the promotion places while Yeovil are trying to climb back into the top half.
Aldershot have been on a good run lately. In their last eight matches they have won four, drawn two and lost two. The most recent results are a 2-1 away win at Solihull, a 1-0 home win over Halifax, a 1-1 draw away at Eastleigh, a 3-1 home victory over Harrogate, a 1-1 draw away at Kidderminster and a 1-0 home loss to Hartlepool. The side have scored nine goals and let in seven in that stretch, keeping two clean sheets and failing to find the net in two games. Their last four home games have produced two wins and two defeats, and they are coming into this fixture after two straight wins, albeit on a short three-day turnaround.
Yeovil have struggled in the same period. Over their last eight games they have won three, drawn two and lost three. The sequence reads: a 4-1 home loss to AFC Fylde, another 4-1 home defeat to the same side, a 3-2 away loss to Southend, a 3-2 home win over Tamworth, a 2-1 away win at Barrow and a 3-0 home win over Gateshead. They have scored 14 and conceded 16, kept only one clean sheet and have been involved in six games with three or more goals, with both sides scoring in seven of the eight matches. Yeovil arrive on the back of three consecutive defeats, also after only three days since their last game.
The two clubs have met five times before. Aldershot have won two of those meetings, Yeovil one and two have ended in draws. The games have averaged three goals each, showing that both sides tend to find the net when they meet. The most recent encounter was on 17 February 2026, when Yeovil lost 1-2 at home to Aldershot. Given the goal-rich history and the fact that both teams have been scoring and conceding regularly, we can expect another open contest with chances at both ends.
Our pick is for both teams to score. Aldershot average 1.6 goals per game and Yeovil 1.3, and the chance of each side scoring is high – 81 % for Aldershot and 72 % for Yeovil. The price of 1.63 is shorter than we think the game will be, making it attractive. We see a 56 % chance of both sides finding the net. The bet would go wrong if Aldershot manage a clean sheet, which would require a very tight defensive display that their recent record does not suggest. Otherwise, a goal from each side looks the most likely outcome.
