Kidderminster Harriers 1st place 89 points 

Leading the table going into the final weekend is Phil Brown's Kidderminster Harriers, who are unbeaten in their last 13 games—a run that stretches back to mid-February. 

Their superior goal difference means they almost have an extra point to play with and on the final day will fancy their chances away at Southport, who may be safe from relegation but are without a win in their last six. 

Brackley Town 2nd place 89 points 

Only goal difference is separating Brackley from the summit of the National League North, but given they have such an inferior total to the leaders they are going to need Kidderminster to slip up if they are to clinch promotion. 

They could not have wished for a better game to finish on, as they face bottom-placed Farsley Celtic, who are already relegated and haven't won a match since Boxing Day. 

Scunthorpe United 3rd place 87 points 

Scunthorpe United are waiting in the wings if there are any slip-ups from the top two, as they look to begin their fight back to the Football League. However, they face the trickiest final day tie of all of the top three. 

Andy Butler's men face another former Football League club in Hereford, who are also eyeing up promotion via the play-offs. However, they also need to make sure of a top-seven place with a victory to hold off three teams below them who could still sneak a play-off place.
