Match preview

Boreham Wood sprung a surprise on League Two Southend in the first round of the FA Cup, but they can live up to their tag as favourites and claim another Essex-based scalp when they travel to face Isthmian League North outfit Canvey Island.

Luke Garrard's Wood required penalties to shrug off the Shrimpers after sharing the spoils in a six-goal thriller but they should find things considerably easier against Canvey Island, who are three levels inferior to them in the footballing pyramid.

Canvey Island have already won six matches in this season’s FA Cup, but they lost the shot stats 26-10 in their 2-1 first round win over Banbury and Wood, whose attack is formed by the prolific Kabongo Tshimanga and the vastly experienced Matt Rhead, should profit.

Key stat

Canvey Island conceded twice in each of their two FA Cup qualifying wins over Biggleswade and Cray Wanderers.
