Wood can make more history
Boreham Wood are clear leaders in the National League 2026/2027 after five consecutive wins and should justify support as they head to the Laithwaite Community Stadium to face 16th-placed Woking FC in a top versus bottom clash.
Matt Rush has been just as lethal for Boreham Wood, the top-scorer in the league with nine goals in seven, so don't be surprised if one of them scores for the visitors on Tuesday.
- Boreham Wood have avoided defeat in the last two away meetings and the home side are still seeking a first win against The Wood.
- The Wood have come out on top in four of the last five meetings, most recently in a 3-2 FA Cup Qualification 2026 success, so it looks like this will be another hard game for The Cardinals.
- John Marquis is Woking's 'man of the moment' with six National League 2026/2027 goals in as many appearances, but he has scored five of Woking's 12 goals in their last five games.
Boreham Wood’s ‘control versus transition’
Tactical setup
Craig Ross is still shaping a clear identity, but the 4-2-3-1 he employs has been one of the more compact, less expansive sides this season. Luke Garrard has been able to get Boreham Wood to play a more control-first game, using possession, midfield rotation and fluid movement to boss matches. They arrive on a five-game winning streak after victories over Altrincham, Sutton United and Woking in their last three and there is no reason to oppose them again here.
Form and defensive record
They sit 16th, so this will be a real test of Woking's progress. Woking have won two and lost three of their last five, including two straight defeats coming into this. They have played the better football in those games but have been leaky at the back. Woking average 1.57 goals scored and 1.71 conceded per home game in the National League 2026/2027 and there's no reason to think this won't be another open affair.
Back Boreham to be good enough
Boreham Wood to win is priced at 1.72, which is good enough to take given they have avoided defeat in their last two trips to face Woking. But it seems most likely that they will edge it in an end-to-end game.
Over 2.5 goals is priced at 1.63, which looks okay in a game that will open up as these two teams clash. Both teams to score, priced at 1.6, also appeals as both sides have been getting and giving plenty this season.
