Accrington to win
We kick off our predictions for this game by backing Accrington to win and, actually, the odds on offer are surprisingly handsome with all things considered. Accrington had a mare at the weekend shipping three early goals to Barnsley but that's only going to make them want to bounce back here. Their home record is not too bad either with one win and two draws across their last four combined with that Barnsley defeat. Of course, they've all been against opposition stronger than Boreham Wood. Boreham Wood meanwhile aren't exactly a great side on the road; they're winless in four away games having lost three of them. It makes getting a result here a big ask.
Both teams to score
Our next prediction for this game comes from the both teams to score market and we are firmly in the ‘yes' camp. Accrington have seen three of their last five games end with goals for both teams whilst Boreham Wood have been goal crazy of late with each of their last four games ending with goals for both sides. On top of that, it's also worth remembering that we've only got a replay here for the sides playing out a 1-1 last time around. With all that factored in, a BTTS ‘Yes' wager looks sensible.

Draw odds: 9/4 (3.25) – 31%
Boreham Wood odds: 9/4 (3.25) – 31%
Accrington might be the higher ranked side by some distance but the betting odds suggest a home win is far from nailed on.

Check out the predicted lineups ahead of Accrington vs Boreham Wood
Accrington
Accrington arrive into this game off the back of a poor home performance and will want to give their fans something to cheer about here. That might just encourage them to go with a couple less changes to the XI. Expect a 3-5-2 formation as Accrington attempt to dominate the game.
Predicted lineup – Savin, Rodgers, Tharme, Astley, McConville, Hamilton, Martin, Quirk, Whalley, Leigh
Boreham Wood
Boreham Wood did extremely well to hold Accrington in the first clash between these teams and after their latest fixture was called off they've had a few extra days of rest and recovery. That will allow them to name the strongest possible XI without concerns about overloading their players.
Predicted lineup – Ashmore, Evans, Ilesanmi, Agbontohoma, Coxe, Broadbent, Payne, Lewis, Ndlovu, Brunt, Newton
Starting Lineups

Player to watch
We picked out Tommy Leigh as the key player last time these teams met and the Accrington Stanley man remains the one to watch in this game. He arrives here in really good form having bagged goals in each of his last two games. It's not just recently when Leigh has been impressive though; he is putting up the best numbers of his career across this campaign with 10 goals and an assist to his name.
