Solihull Moors will face Forest Green Rovers on Tuesday, December 29 at 7pm at The New Lawn. The rearranged National League fixture replaces the originally scheduled Monday, December 28 kick-off at 3pm. The game marks the Moors’ last outing of 2026 before the turn of the year.
What changed with the fixture?
The National League confirmed the switch on Friday, moving the match back by one day. Solihull Moors ended last season 14th in the final 2025 table with 56 points from 46 games, and their recent form reads WLDDW. The new date keeps the Moors on schedule for their final 2026 fixture before the New Year break.
Why does the new date help?
Playing on December 29 gives the Moors a later Christmas trip to Gloucestershire. The extra day could ease travel plans for fans and the squad after the holiday break. The National League’s fixture list now slots the game between Boxing Day and New Year’s Eve, a busy stretch for clubs in the fifth tier.
What’s next for Solihull Moors?
The Moors sit 52 points behind league leaders York with a goal difference of minus one this season. They have scored 71 goals but conceded 72, leaving them in a tight mid-table fight. Their last result came on April 25, a 4-1 win at Yeovil Town, and their recent form over the last five games stands at 2W-1D-2L (WWLLD). With the rearranged date in place, Mark Yates’ side can focus on closing out 2026 strongly before the January transfer window arrives.
League standing (final 2025 table -- new season not yet under way): 14th in National League, 56 pts, 14W-14D-18L from 46 games, recent form WLDDW.
