Pools made sure they’d be playing in the fifth tier again next season thanks to a 2-0 win over play-off chasing Aldershot, who dropped out of the top seven after defeat in the North East.
Kevin Phillips and his side will make the long trip to Berkshire full of confidence after taking seven points from the last nine available.
The boss stressed the importance of a strong end to the season and will know that Pools cannot afford to take 17th placed Maidenhead lightly, with the Magpies also unbeaten in three and needing another win to be certain of avoiding relegation to the National League South.
Phillips once again finds himself with almost as many injuries as available options, with Courtney Duffus and Manny Onariase the latest pair ruled out last week.
However, he could well look to utilise Campbell Darcy, Alfie Steel and Max Storey after the academy trio featured in the squad on Saturday.
Here’s a look at how Pools could line up:
9. Attacking-midfield: Callum Cooke
Never stopped running on Saturday but will be hoping his side can dominate the ball a bit more at York Road, allowing him to show what he can do as a creator. Photo: Mark Fletcher
10. Right-midfield: Joe Grey
So impressive since Phillips took over it's hard to believe he's still only 20 and the Pools boss will be looking to him to stretch the Magpies defence in midweek. Photo: Mark Fletcher
11. Striker: Mani Dieseruvwe
It's never too difficult to decide who is likely to start up front for Pools. Has been in excellent form since returning from England C duty but, despite back-to-back home penalties, hasn't scored from open play for more than a month. Photo: Mark Fletcher
