Woking woes to continue at home to Coasters
The Cards (0 wins, 0 points) are bottom of the National League 2026/2027 table ahead of AFC Fylde (4 points from 2 games), who're currently 8th, following both sides' opening two games. Woking's two most recent National League 2026/2027 results were a 0-3 defeat at home to Sutton United and a 2-0 defeat away to Gateshead, whereas the Coasters followed up a 2-2 draw at home with Wealdstone with a 2-1 away win over Tamworth.
Craig Mahon has already stamped his mark on AFC Fylde since coming into the club as manager on 1st July 2025, with his side playing a high-tempo, front-foot game. Fylde press the ball aggressively and with numbers when out of possession, and they can move the ball very quickly to overload in wide areas and through the centre once it is won back. Adam Lewis leads the way in the goals for the Coasters in the National League 2026/2027 with 1 goal in 1 game.
Woking's 4-3-4 system is based upon keeping a tight shape, maintaining control of the midfield and playing with a measured tempo. The Cards have struggled to get it right in recent seasons and the managerial merry-go-round has stopped them from achieving the cohesion required to get the most out of their playing style.
The contrast in playing styles sets up an interesting clash of Woking's control game against Fylde's counter-press and fast breaks. Woking have had Fylde's number in this fixture in their previous 2 meetings in all competitions (W1, D1, L0), but the visitors have an advantage in form ahead of this Saturday's clash.
Although Fylde are the form favourites, the 2nd best odds for the away win are not attractive enough for us to take them and there is a chance that the home side could nick this one, so the Draw at 13/5 is the main selection. Fylde are the likelier winner and this should be a lively encounter, so the odds look favourable for over 2.5 goals at 13/20 and both teams to score - yes at 11/20.
