Betting Insights
- Rob Elliot has had them playing on the front foot since he joined in May 2026, as they have pressed higher up and played with more aggression and that should suit the game plan of Garrard, who has made the Wood flexible and effective in a 4-2-3-1 system.
- Both teams to score is the smart choice at 1.44 and the Wood is the more likely outcome, but the value looks to be with the hosts in this one, who are 2.0 to the visitors' 3.02.
