Pragmatic Wingate & Finchley can give the Blues to the Eagles
This looks like an open fixture between two different styles of teams and that often makes for a compelling watch. Wingate & Finchley FC are a compact, pragmatic side who have no fear of getting into a cup fight and they will likely be up for this. They're a side that is set up to be a handful and they'll be looking to get bodies behind the ball to make the most of their pace on the counter and set pieces.
Bedford Town FC are more of a possession-based team who like to get the ball down and try and dominate territory, they will try and do that in this game but are likely to find themselves up against it at times. However, they've been a very handy side in their own right this term and the Eagles will arrive looking to take the game to their opponents.
A contest with two sides who can nick it
Wingate are a useful side who can be hard to beat in the right matchups and they have won five of their last ten across all competitions, drawing three and losing two. They are unbeaten in their last five, so they come into this one in solid form and that could be their edge.
Bedford have also played ten matches and their overall results are slightly better, having won six, drawn two and lost only two of their previous ten. They are on a two-match draw streak and their most recent three results read 2-1, 1-1, 2-2, so they've been in the game, but they haven't been ruthless enough to put teams away.
Back the home win
Wingate & Finchley FC's recent home form has seen them pick up a win from one of the three matches played there across all competitions (W1, D1, L1) but that's enough to suggest that they can make life awkward for Bedford on their own patch.
The Blues have the better platform to push forward on and they can pick off the home side as and when they get the chance, but Bedford have been conceding 1.75 goals per away game this season whilst only scoring 1.25 and so they're usually vulnerable at the back.
Going for a home win looks the best bet for this clash between two solid, but different sides, as Wingate have that cup steel and a game plan to make life tough for the visitors, whilst both teams to score looks live, and Over 2.5 Goals is the lean as the sides look to trade blows.
