Woking vs Sutton Prediction

The National League promotion race has already started to heat up and will continue to do so when 12th placed Woking host 9th placed Sutton, who are separated by just a point after 11 games each.

With Eastleigh sitting four points clear of Sutton in the last promotion spot, both sides will have their sights set on victory here to avoid any considerable gap opening up between them and the play-offs.

Woking Preview

Woking Predicted Lineup (4-4-2): Will Jaaskelainen (GK); Max Dyche, Daniel Moss, Cian Harries, Raheem Evangelista-Conte; Jamie Andrews, Dale Gorman, Tunji Akinola, Jermaine Anderson; Charley Kendall, Lewis Walker.

Having come 4th in 2022/23, Woking harbored ambitions of making the jump to League Two last season, but things did not go to plan. Finishing in a lowly 17th, with the second worst goal scoring record in the league, it was a crash back down to reality for the Surrey based side.

They have had an improved start this time round, but are still struggling in front of goal. They have won just one of the last five games, and will view this game against Sutton as the opportunity to create a real turning point in their season.

Sutton Preview

Sutton Predicted Lineup (3-5-2): Steven Arnold (GK); Charlie Waller, Chinwike Okoli, Harry Ransom; Lewis Simper, Eduino Vaz, Siju Odelusi, Jayden Harris, Tyler French; Ashley Nadesan, Will Davis.

Sutton had a quick start to the season, winning 7 points in their opening three games. However, they then failed to win any of their next five, drawing just two in the process and dropped down to 17th.

But they have started to turn things around, and have beaten Southend and Ebbsfleet 3-1 and 3-2 respectively, as well as drawing to Yeovil in their three most recent fixtures.

They would very much like to maintain this vein of form when they travel across the outskirts of South London to Woking.

Woking vs Sutton Betting Tips

Both sides have been very inconsistent as of late, and a solid run of results have so far eluded both of them.

Both sides have good quality, and are partial to goals at both ends, meaning this game could go either way, and they appear too evenly matched to pick a winner.

Final Prediction: Woking vs Sutton

Woking 2-2 Sutton

With that being, it seems that the most likely outcome if for both sides to cancel each other out. Both are almost certain to score due to somewhat leaky defenses, and if woking can find their shooting boots, they should be able to match their opponents.

A draw wouldn't do either side any good, as they will fail to make up ground on the already separated group of sides in the playoff spots, and will be hoping that this particular prediction doesn't come to fruition.
