We think that Southend will not start the season with a defeat at home, so we give our trust to them with a draw no bet. This means that even if the match ends in a draw, we will not lose any money. If Southend win, we win our entire bet.

Southend United vs Boreham Wood: Form, Recent Games, and News
Southend Preview
Southend were a typical average team in the previous season and finished right below the middle of the table. The team had one of the weakest attacks in the league – only three teams scored fewer goals than them out of 24 teams last season. Their off-season preparation did not go according to plan either and the team seems to be slightly out of shape right now.
Boreham Wood Preview
Boreham Wood were one of the top teams for a long period in the previous season but then went into decline and even failed to reach the playoffs. As mentioned above, they had one of the weakest attacks in the league but also one of the best defenses. Their goal difference after 44 games was just 49:40, which was both impressive and quite boring, to be honest.
