Battery recommendations

So the wagon having a few issues starting in the mornings at the moment, thought it might have been glow plugs so replaced them but still having a few issues. Now think its the battery just wondering what people use/reccommend/avoid etc

P.s it's a 1996 kzn185 surf (single battery version)
