AFC Fylde have suffered back-to-back defeats at the hands of Leyton Orient and Dagenham & Redbridge, but can get back to winning ways against Boreham Wood.

The Coasters have conceded just 12 goals so far but remain a force to be reckoned with in attack, scoring ten across their last five matches at Mill Farm.

The visitors were a bogey team last season for Dave Challinor’s side, who failed to beat them in three attempts, including in the playoffs.

But the Wood have won just two of their last ten matches and failed to score in their last three, making the hosts an attractive punt.

On the opposite end of the country Dover welcome Hartlepool with both teams in need of a win, but a stalemate looks the likely outcome.

The Whites have been on a dismal run since the start of the season but are showing signs of life under Andy Hessenthaler, while Hartlepool’s push for the playoffs has stalled following four successive defeats.

It’s been more than two months since the Pools last scored a goal on the road, but Dover’s defensive record has been woeful and this one has all the makings of a close contest.

Recommendations
