Torquay United head into their clash with Hereford United knowing that only a win will be good enough as they aim to secure automatic promotion.
Following their 1-1 draw with Crewe Alexandra last week, the Gulls are now level on 81 points with third placed Crawley Town and need to better the Red Devils result against Accrington Stanley at Edgar Street.
The fixture also has the added spice as the Bulls also head into the game needing to secure victory as they aim to ensure that they remain in League Two for the 2012-13 campaign.
As well as Crawley, Torquay will also need to be wary of Paul Sturrock's Southend United who are hosting already relegated Macclesfield Town at Roots Hall and are in prime position to pounce to any slip ups made by the Gulls or Crawley.
Should the Gulls secure promotion, their Football League 'share' would increase by £300,000 in League One and there would also be the prospect of increased gates against the likes of Coventry City and Portsmouth as well as Westcountry based sides such as AFC Bournemouth, Yeovil Town and newly promoted Swindon Town.
