Boreham Wood host Woking in the FA Cup. Boreham Wood have been in excellent form across their recent matches, while Woking have had a much bumpier run over the same period.
These two have met plenty of times down the years, often in low-scoring, tight contests. That history doesn't tell us much about how this particular version of the sides will fare, especially with form currently pulling in different directions.

Boreham Wood flying, Woking stuttering
Boreham Wood's numbers jump out: 16 wins from their last 20 matches, no losses, and 55 goals scored against 23 conceded. That sample mixes National League fixtures with cup ties and pre-season friendlies, so it's not a pure league record, but it still points to a side full of confidence right now.
Boreham Wood: 20 completed matches; Woking: 20 completed matches.

Woking's picture is far less settled. Seven wins, four draws and nine defeats in their last 20, with recent National League results including a 1-3 loss at Eastleigh and a 2-5 defeat at Carlisle. There have been bright spots too, like a 5-1 win over Altrincham, but consistency has been the issue.
Woking's mixed away form makes life harder heading into a trip to a side on a long unbeaten run.
A fixture with plenty of history
These sides have met over twenty times since 2014, and the head-to-head has generally been tight. Draws crop up regularly, and neither club has strung together a long run of dominance over the other.

The most recent league meetings split the difference: Boreham Wood won 1-0 at home last September, having drawn 2-2 away in March. Go back further and you'll find narrow wins both ways, including a 2014 FA Cup tie that Woking won 2-1 on this same ground.
How this one might play out
Boreham Wood's home form this season has been strong, and that unbeaten run will give them plenty of belief going into this one. Woking's away struggles, by contrast, suggest they could be there to be got at, particularly if Boreham Wood start brightly.
That said, cup football has a habit of throwing up tighter games than league form suggests, and the head-to-head record here backs that up. A cagey, closer contest wouldn't be a surprise given how often these two have finished level in the past.
Recent form favours the hosts, but this fixture's history warns against expecting an easy night.

With no market to weigh up, there's no pick to make here. Boreham Wood's recent run gives them every reason for confidence at home, but Woking have shown they can be competitive even in defeats, and this fixture's history is littered with tight scorelines.
Worth watching rather than backing blind: the form gap looks wide, but this particular meeting has rarely gone the way the form table might suggest.
