Comment les deux équipes abordent-elles ce match ?
Boreham Wood have shown flashes of quality throughout the campaign but have struggled for consistency in front of goal. Their play-off semi-final run was built on a solid defensive foundation, and they will look to leverage home support to maintain that form. Recent results at the Mangata Pay UK Stadium suggest they can be hard to break down, and they will be determined to keep another clean sheet on Sunday.
Maidstone United arrive off the back of an emotionally charged win against Eastbourne Borough, a result that left manager George Elokobi moved to tears. That triumph has given the Stones a real belief that they can overcome any obstacle. Their attacking players have been more clinical in recent weeks, and they know that a win here will send them into the final full of momentum and confidence.
Nos prévisions
Given the importance of this fixture, we expect a cagey start with both teams probing for weaknesses but remaining defensively disciplined. A low-scoring affair seems likely, with neither side wanting to take too many risks early on. Possession will be key, and the team that controls the midfield battle could edge ahead.
In terms of goals, a narrow 1-0 victory is our prediction. While Boreham Wood’s home form cannot be underestimated, Maidstone’s recent playoff performance suggests they have the edge in confidence. We fancy the visitors to nick a late goal and secure a spot in the play-off final.
