The biggest wins in betting on Eldshot Town matches

 

Eldshot Town, founded in 1992 after the bankruptcy of its predecessor, is fighting for survival and rare sensations. The team's matches are often underestimated, which leads to high odds in betting.

Sensational victory over Stockport County in the FA Cup

In December 2023, Eldshot Town faced Stockport County in an FA Cup match. Stockport, the National League leaders, were considered clear favourites with odds of around 1.40 to win at Betfoxx, while Eldshot were offered 5.50 and above for a win.

The match took place at Stockport's stadium, where the hosts dominated the first half, creating numerous chances, but Eltham goalkeeper Jordan Hudson saved all the threats. In the second half, Tommy Walsh's side went on the counterattack: in the 65th minute, Oliver Harper broke through on the wing and scored from a pass, beating the defence. Stockport increased the pressure, but Eltham held their defence, and in added time, Tom Rayner doubled the score after a mistake by the opposing goalkeeper. The final score was 2-0 in favour of the underdogs.

This result came as a shock: bettors who took a chance on a full victory for Aldershot received winnings of up to £10,000 from small bets of £100.

Dramatic triumph in the derby against Woking

April 2025 brought Eldshot Town a heated derby with Woking in the National League. It was revenge for previous defeats: Woking led the table, with odds of 1.80 on their victory and 4.20 on Eldshot's. The Recreation Ground stadium was packed, and the atmosphere was electric.

The first half was evenly matched: Woking scored in the 22nd minute from a set piece, but Eldshot responded in the 38th minute with a penalty kick by Joseph Olson after a foul in the penalty area. Woking dominated the second half, but in the 72nd minute, Aldershot launched a successful counterattack: Cody Jonas dribbled past two defenders and shot into the far corner.

In the final minutes, the hosts laid siege to the goal, but the crossbar and saves saved the visitors. The final score was 2-1. This derby is considered one of the most important in the lower leagues of England. Bettors who predicted the exact score or a victory with a handicap won up to £50,000, given the odds of 12.00 for 2-1.

Unexpected success against Gateshead in the playoffs

In April 2024, in the National League playoff semi-final, Aldershot Town faced Gateshead. Gateshead, the favourite with odds of 1.75 to win, had a five-game unbeaten streak. Aldershot was offered at 4.50. The away match began with a goal from the hosts in the 10th minute — a precise shot from 20 metres. Eldshot did not lose heart: in the 28th minute, Ryan Henderson restored the balance after a corner.

The second half was a real battle: Gateshead conceded in the 55th minute from a long-range shot by the captain, and in the 78th minute, the home side's defender was sent off for a second yellow card. Eldshot took advantage of their numerical superiority, scoring a fourth goal on the counterattack into an empty net. The final score was 4-1. This victory took the team to the playoff final. Bettors who believed in a total of over 3.5 or a clear victory won over £20,000 at odds of up to 8.00.

Comeback victory over Halifax Town

In October 2024, Aldershot Town hosted Halifax Town in a home league match. Halifax was leading the table, with odds of 2.20 for the visitors and 3.40 for the hosts. Eldshot played passively in the first half: in the 15th minute, Halifax scored from a penalty, and in the 35th minute, they doubled their lead after a defensive error.

The Amesbury Stadium was silent, and defeat seemed inevitable. But in the second half, the coach brought on fresh players: in the 52nd minute, a goal from a corner reduced the deficit, scored by Tommy Walsh. In the 67th minute, the comeback was complete — a precise pass to the wing, and Oliver Harper equalised with a shot around the goalkeeper.

Victory came in the 85th minute: a long-range shot by Joseph Olson into the net. 3-2 — triumph. This match was one of the highest-scoring of the season for Aldershot. Comeback wins or totals over 4.5 reached £15,000 with odds of 15.00.

FA Trophy final against Spennamur Town

In May 2025, Aldershot Town won the FA Trophy, beating Spennamur Town in the final. Spennamur, a strong mid-table team, had odds of 2.80, while Aldershot had odds of 2.20 as the hosts at Wembley. The match started cautiously: the first goal came in the 20th minute from Aldershot after a counterattack by Harper. Spennamur responded in the 45th minute with a precise shot from 25 metres. The second half was dominated by Eltham: in the 60th minute, Olson scored with a header from a corner, and in the 75th minute, Reiner made it 3-1.

The final ended in a confident victory, bringing the club the trophy. This is their first major success since 2019. Bettors on a clean win or a total of 3 goals won up to £30,000 at odds of 6.50.
