Home 13/8 Draw 11/5 Away 11/8

This match will have one of the best atmosphere's around on Boxing Day. Second-placed Torquay are the obvious choice to win but I think home advantage comes into it and I actually think Exeter may get a result. The Grecians, who are in 8th spot in the table, won 3-0 away to Halifax in their last league game and then beat Salisbury by the same scoreline in the FA Trophy. They've won three, drawn six and lost one at St James Park this season, while Torquay have won seven, drawn two and lost two on the road. The Gulls won 2-1 away at Farsley Celtic in their last match and beat Bashley 1-0 in the FA Trophy. I don't think Exeter will lose this match so I'm going for Exeter Draw No Bet, so if Exeter end up drawing the match, you get your money back.

Verdict: Draw

Best Bet: Exeter Draw No Bet
