Betting Insights
- The Cards are expected to take the game to Gateshead, who are built around a back three and prefer to keep the ball, probe for openings through positional overloads and push their high wing-backs on.
- This clash of styles should make for an open, attacking game and the goals are likely to flow on Saturday.
- The odds of 1.6 for over 2.5 goals are a bit rich, but the better than evens price for Both Teams to Score should be taken with confidence.
Prediction
But Woking are fresh under their new boss and look to be playing with a bit more freedom, so we’re going to back them to come away with the win on Saturday.
