LV BET Preview: The Matchday 22 Stat Pack

By Oliver Osborn

Each gameweek, The National League's official betting partner LV BET provides the lowdown of the key matches across the Vanarama National League. Find out all you need to know ahead of Matchday 22.

Maidenhead United vs. Woking

Both Clubs know the score, part-time teams in what is a full-time dominated division means you are always up against it.

It means Maidenhead and Woking fans will always look at the bigger picture and neither will be disappointed with how things have gone so far.

Alan Dowson’s Cards are still very much in the mix - despite just one National League win since August.

Sitting in eighth, just a point outside the top seven, their supporters will see the play-offs as a realistic goal after staying in touch regardless of the lack of three-point returns lately.

Maidenhead began so strongly but inconsistency is hampering their promotion chances.

Just two home wins have held them back, they average only a goal every game at York Road - and Alan Devonshire wants them to put that right on Saturday.

History is certainly on the Magpies’ side.

Maidenhead did the double over Woking when they were last in the National League together two years ago - a season which saw the Cards relegated.
