Yeovil Town
- Yeovil are the form team with two wins and a draw in their last three games, and they have won their last two.
- The Glovers are sixth in National League 2026/2027 with 18 points from ten games, while the Pilgrims sit 18th with just 11 points.
- Yeovil have won their two most recent fixtures - a 4-1 home win over Solihull Moors followed by a 1-0 away win, so they should be in good spirits for this clash.
- Yeovil have won three of their five home National League 2026/2027 games (D1, L1).
- Yeovil have scored 12 goals in five home league games this season and are a threat in front of their own fans.
Boston United
- Boston's away record in the National League 2026/2027 reads won two, drawn one and lost one.
- Boston have won one, drawn two and lost two of their last five, so there is a disparity between the teams in terms of form.
- Boston have scored an average of 2.00 goals per game in their four away National League 2026/2027 matches and conceded 1.25 per away game, so they clearly have the confidence to go forward on their travels.
- They drew 1-1 at home to Woking, beat Forest Green Rovers 3-1 away and then lost 1-0 at home to AFC Fylde in their last three.
Head-to-Head
Boston, who won the last head-to-head 2-1 at home in National League 2025/2026 , have just enough structure and counter-punch to keep this one honest.
Key Players
- Kenneth Aboh has three goals in nine National League 2026/2027 appearances for Boston and he could be their best chance of pulling off an upset on Saturday.
- Luke McCormick is the main man for Yeovil with six goals in eight National League 2026/2027 and the Glovers should have their reliable finisher in the box in this fixture.
Betting Insights
- Billy Rowley sets Yeovil up to play a 4-3-3 system which is possession-first, while Paul Hurst sets up his Boston side in a 4-3-3 or 4-2-3-1 with structure, width and pragmatism the order of the day.
- So there is a clear tactical clash here - with Yeovil wanting to control the ball and Boston looking to be compact and then expose them on the flanks.
- The over 2.5 goals market at 1.71 looks promising for this contest, while both teams to score at 1.59 also has goals written all over it.
- The draw is 3.38, Yeovil are 2.18 and Boston are 2.85, and there is a slight preference for Yeovil to edge this.
- The matchup record of no draws in the last three between the sides also points to a winner.
