Solihull Moors face a critical National League fixture at home to AFC Fylde on Monday 31st August. The Moors sit 24th in the table with zero points from four games, while their visitors arrive in eighth place with seven points.
This match data was compiled by the BBC. The context is stark for the home side, who have lost all four league matches this term, scoring four goals but conceding thirteen for a minus nine goal difference. They trail league leaders Sutton United by a full twelve points already.
What is Solihull Moors' current form?
Solihull Moors' struggles extend beyond the league campaign. Their recent form across all competitions makes for difficult reading. They suffered a 3-1 defeat to Scunthorpe United and a 1-3 loss to Southend United. In the National League Cup, they were beaten 1-3 by Middlesbrough's under-21 side. Further losses include a 0-2 reverse against Boston United and a heavy 5-2 defeat to Harrogate Town. This sequence has left the team rooted to the foot of the standings.
Managerial focus will be on shoring up a defence that has been breached too often. The need for a positive result at Damson Park is urgent to build any kind of platform for the season ahead. You can review the team's personnel on our squad page.
How has Fylde performed this season?
In contrast, AFC Fylde have made a solid start to the new campaign. Their seven-point haul from the opening fixtures has them positioned comfortably in the top half. Their recent results show a mixed bag, however. They secured a good 2-0 win against Forest Green Rovers but then lost 3-2 to Woking. A 1-2 away victory at Tamworth was followed by a 2-2 draw with Wealdstone. They also lost a club friendly 2-0 to Warrington Rylands.
The Lancashire side will view this trip as an opportunity to consolidate their promising early position. With eight goals scored in the league so far, they possess more attacking threat than their hosts on current evidence.
What is the recent head-to-head record?
The recent history between these two clubs has produced entertaining contests. Their last meeting was in the FA Trophy on 13th December 2025, which ended in a 2-2 draw. Before that, in the National League on 21st December 2024, Solihull Moors secured a comprehensive 4-1 victory over Fylde. The previous league encounter that season, on 10th August 2024, went the way of Fylde with a 3-2 scoreline.
These results suggest a pattern of closely fought matches with goals. For Solihull Moors, replicating their dominant 4-1 win from 2024 would provide a massive boost. All the historical data is available on our stats section.
What are the National League stakes?
The broader context of the National League adds weight to this fixture. The team that finishes first gains automatic promotion to the Football League. Positions two through seven enter the end-of-season promotion play-offs. At the other end of the table, the four bottom clubs – 21st, 22nd, 23rd, and 24th – face relegation to the National League North or South.
Solihull Moors' current occupancy of 24th place therefore carries significant early concern. Every point is vital in a long campaign, and a home game against a direct mid-table rival represents a clear chance to start their recovery. The full schedule of challenges ahead can be seen on our fixtures list.
Monday's match is therefore a pivotal moment for Solihull Moors. Failure to get a result would see them remain adrift at the bottom with momentum firmly against them. A win, however, could provide the spark needed to ignite their season and begin the climb away from danger.
