Chesterfield vs Boreham Wood prediction and betting tips on March 23, 2024
One of the fixtures in the 41st round of the English National League will take place on Saturday at the Technic Arena, where the local team Chesterfield will host Boreham Wood. Here's the match forecast from our experts at Dailysports.
Chesterfield
The "Spirits" are having an exceptional season and rightfully sit at the top of the National League table. In the 40 matches played, Chesterfield has secured 29 victories, accumulating 92 points. Considering that the second-placed Barnet trails by 21 points, it's highly unlikely that anything will prevent Paul Cook's team from playing in the second division next season. However, it must be acknowledged that in recent rounds, the "Spirits" have slightly faltered in their results. For instance, in the last round, Chesterfield suffered a 2-4 defeat against Halifax away, and prior to that, they drew 2-2 with Oldham Athletic. Nevertheless, Chesterfield performs exceptionally well in home matches, having failed to win only three out of twenty encounters.
Boreham Wood
On the other hand, Boreham Wood is engaged in a completely different battle than their opponent. Currently, the "Wood" occupies the 20th position in the National League table and is fighting to avoid relegation. Boreham Wood is separated from the relegation zone by just one point. In recent rounds, they have notably declined in terms of results. Last weekend, Boreham Wood suffered a 0-1 defeat in an away match against Aldershot Town. This defeat marked their third consecutive loss, and overall, Boreham Wood hasn't won in four matches. Clearly, Luke Garrard's team has been performing poorly, especially in recent away games, having suffered four consecutive defeats.
