Gateshead

LDDLLL 📉

Gateshead will be hoping to bounce back here after a 3-1 National League defeat last time out to Forest Green Rovers.

The only name on the scoresheet from Gateshead was Jacob Butterfield (95'). Jili Buyabu (12'), Temi Babalola (26') and Jayden Clarke (45') scored for Forest Green Rovers.

Gateshead haven’t exactly had impressive attacking statistics in more recent games. Their goals record equals just 4 vs opposing sides during their last 6 matches. In those games, Gateshead have also seen the number of goals scored against them come to 14. It will be interesting to see if that trend will end up being sustained here.

Looking at the pre-match facts, Gateshead:

• have not been beaten in the league by Boreham Wood in their last 6 matches.
• haven't won against Boreham Wood in their last 2 league matches.
• are without a win at home for the past 7 league matches. Things will have to change soon.

📋 Team News: Gateshead

It’s a low absenteeism rate, with just a single fitness concern for the Gateshead boss Alun Armstrong to be concerned with from a near full-strength group of players. Connor Pani (Achilles tendon rupture) misses out.

It seems likely that The Tynesiders will probably use a 4-2-3-1 formation for this one with Christian Walton, Darnell Furlong, Dara O'Shea, Jacob Greaves, Leif Davis, Jack Taylor, Jens Cajuste, Jaden Philogene, Marcelino Núñez, Jack Clarke and George Hirst.

📋 Team News: Boreham Wood

It’s our belief that The Wood will likely make use of a 3-5-1-1 lineup, giving starts to Arthur Okonkwo, Max Cleworth, Dominic Hyam, Dan Scarr, Issa Kabore, George Dobson, Lewis O'Brien, Ben Sheaf, Ryan Longman, Josh Windass and Nathan Broadhead.

⚡ Prediction

Our thinking is that Gateshead are likely to find the back of the net against this Boreham Wood side, but a single goal probably won’t quite be good enough.

Our selection here is for a tight encounter finishing with a 1-2 victory for Boreham Wood after 90 minutes. There shouldn’t be much in it, either way.
