Boston United travel to face Forest Green Rovers this Saturday looking to arrest a worrying slide in form. The Pilgrims have not won in five National League matches and sit 18th in the table with just eight points from their opening eight games.
Their last outing was a 1-1 home draw with Woking, where T. Agyemang gave them an early lead. That result followed a disappointing 3-1 defeat to Wealdstone at York Street. The team's recent form reads two draws and three losses from their last five, a sequence that has left them 12 points behind leaders Boreham Wood.
Forest Green present a tough challenge, currently sitting ninth and unbeaten in their last three league games. They thrashed Gateshead 4-0 at home earlier this month. Boston will need to tighten up defensively, having conceded 12 goals already this season.
Manager Luke Chadwick is expected to keep faith with a similar side to the one that started against Woking. That lineup included S. Sachdev and J. Grimes in defence, with N. Pozo and T. Agyemang in midfield. Supporters can check the full squad list and the latest injury news on our squad and injuries pages.
The match kicks off at 14:00 UTC at The New Lawn. A positive result is vital for Boston to climb away from the lower reaches of the standings.
Manager Paul Hurst confirmed midfielder Gavan Holohan could return from a dead leg for the trip to Forest Green. New signing Levi Sutton is also in contention for his debut. The club stated United will wear their grey and coral third kit. Boston United sit 18th in the National League with eight points from eight games. Their recent form reads two draws and three losses from their last five.
