Truro City come into this one with only one win in their last six league matches, while Boreham Wood arrive with four wins from their last six and plenty of goals in that spell. Truro’s recent home games have not been especially tight either, with a 1-1 draw against Solihull Moors, a 1-2 defeat to Scunthorpe United and a 0-1 loss to Hartlepool United among the latest results. That leaves them carrying a 39-68 goal record overall, which is the profile of a side that can be opened up.

Boreham Wood have been much more reliable in the final third, scoring in every one of their last six league outings and putting three or more past Gateshead, Brackley Town and York City during that run. Their away record is also strong, with nine wins, six draws and only five defeats, plus 43 goals scored on the road. Even when they lost 3-2 at FC Halifax Town, they still found the net twice, which keeps the over line in play rather than killing it.

Truro’s home numbers are respectable enough to contribute too, with 25 goals scored in 20 home matches, and they have now gone two games unbeaten after the draw with Solihull Moors and the 3-0 win at Sutton United. Boreham Wood’s own recent away win at Aldershot Town, finished 2-1, adds to the case that they can do their part in a fairly open match. The only slight tension for an over is that Truro’s home output is not explosive, but their habit of conceding keeps the total-goals angle alive.

There is a decent head-to-head nudge as well, since Boreham Wood beat Truro City 2-1 in the league meeting in August 2025 and 2-0 in the National League Cup in February 2026. Boreham Wood’s away scoring record, Truro’s poor overall defensive numbers and the recent pattern of both sides being involved in games with three or more goals all point in the same direction. With Boreham Wood also unbeaten in two and Truro still looking vulnerable at home, the match has enough attacking momentum for a goals line rather than a cautious outcome.

My prediction is Over 2.5 Goals at 4/7. Boreham Wood have gone over 2.5 goals in eight of their last eight, they have scored freely away from home, and Truro’s season-long defensive record leaves them exposed. Truro have also just taken four goals across their last three league matches at home, and the projected 1-2 scoreline fits a game where both sides can contribute to the total.
