What to expect

We expect about 1.8 goals from Southend and 2.0 from Boreham Wood, which is as level as our reading of a game gets. Put together, that is around 3.8 goals in the game, and a match we expect to open up at both ends.

Our pick: Boreham Wood or Draw. This covers Boreham Wood or the draw, trading a shorter price for a wider safety net. A sensible way to back the lean without needing the exact result.

We put the chance of that landing at about 67 out of 100. The price on offer is 1.28, which works out at about 78 out of 100. The price is shorter than our own read, so there is less in this than it might look.

What the numbers say
✓Southend have won one of their last five.
✓Boreham Wood have won three of their last five.
