With the widespread postponements on Saturday many games are in doubt with midweek evening games more vulnerable to frost and ice. The BBC weather forecast for Hereford until Tuesday night shows the weather below freezing most of the time with one or two hours reaching 1 degree. Snow is also forecast putting the game at risk. The game has been scheduled by the National League against the free to watch Argentina v Croatia World Cup semi final which will affect the attendance. An early decision at a time of year when there are many family commitments would be particularly appreciated by Chester fans who normally travel in good numbers.
On Saturday Spennymoor delayed making their decision. By contrast Alfreton have already called off their game against Spennymoor which was scheduled for Tuesday night.
