Boreham Wood Prediction
Boreham Wood head into this clash having now gone four league matches without a win in the non-league top flight as they’ve drawn back-to-back matches with Fylde and Dover Athletic as well as recently suffering back-to-back defeats to Ebbsfleet United and Aldershot which has left the hosts still involved in the relegation battle towards the bottom of the division.
Boreham Wood occupy 18th place in the National League and although their home record stands at a so-so 7-5-7 18/24, they’ve actually lost five of their last six matches on home turf with defeats suffered against Maidstone United, Havant & Waterlooville, Hartlepool United, Wrexham and Aldershot – with three of these five losses being against teams situated in the relegation zone.
In addition, Boreham Wood have failed to score in 6 of their 19 home matches to date but what will be really worrying Boreham Wood’s manager, Luke Garrard, is the fact that his side have failed to hit the back of the net in four of their last six home matches in recent times.
- Boreham Wood have lost 5 of their last 6 matches at home in the National League
- Boreham Wood have failed to score in 4 of their last 6 home matches
- Solihull Moors’ 4 strikers have netted 40 goals between them this season
Solihull Moors Prediction
What a difference 12 months make – this time last season, Solihull Moors were desperately fighting against relegation from the National League, while Boreham Wood were sitting in the play-offs.
Solihull Moors manager, Tim Flowers, not only successfully guided his side to non-league top flight safety at the end of last season, he’s helped transform the visitors into genuine automatic promotion contenders as they sit joint top of the National League with Leyton Orient as they’re level on 73 points apiece prior to the midweek action.
Solihull have won their last three home matches on the trot at Damson Park with wins against Maidstone United, Gateshead and Braintree Town, but having lost their last two matches on the trot on the road with defeats at Salford City and Halifax, they’ll no doubt be keen to return to winning ways here.
Solihull possess an away record that reads 11-1-7 29/23 but this requires further attention if they’re to make a serious challenge for promotion up to the Football League.
However, Flowers has some very useful and dangerous attacking personnel in the shape of strike quartet Hylton and Yussuf (12 goals apiece) along with Blissett and Wright (8 goals each) at his disposal, and they should ensure that Solihull walk away with the points here.
Betting Tips Verdict
Boreham Wood are wobbling at home while Solihull possess some dangerous firepower up front. This should be an away win here.
