Boston United travel to face Boreham Wood this weekend, looking to extend their winning run in the National League. The Pilgrims head to Meadow Park for their second away fixture of the season, buoyed by consecutive victories over Solihull Moors and Altrincham.
According to the preview published on the official Boston United website, manager Paul Hurst expects to select from a similar squad to the one that secured the win against Altrincham. The team currently sits 12th in the National League table with six points from four games, having scored four goals and conceded three. They are six points behind early leaders Sutton United.
The Pilgrims have found momentum with two straight wins, a positive response after a mixed start. Their recent form reads LWWL, showing they can bounce back from setbacks. Norwich City loanee Ken Aboh has been central to this upturn, finding the net in three successive matches. His goals have provided a sharp edge upfront.
Paul Hurst will hope that form continues at a ground where Boston United enjoyed success last season. They won 2-1 at Meadow Park, with goals from Lenell John-Lewis and Jordy Hiwula coming in a dramatic period after red cards for both Femi Ilesanmi of Boreham Wood and Regan Booty of the visitors. Fans can track the team's progress and upcoming matches on the club's fixtures page.
Boreham Wood's campaign began with a thrilling 3-3 home draw against newly-promoted Tamworth. They then secured impressive away victories at FC Halifax Town and Forest Green Rovers. However, they were beaten on penalties by Rochdale in a promotion final at Wembley last May, a memory that will still motivate their squad.
They also have a recent win over Boston United to draw confidence from, having beaten the Pilgrims 2-0 at the Jakemans Community Stadium earlier this season. This sets up a compelling tactical battle between two sides familiar with each other's strengths. Supporters can analyze the league context further by checking the latest standings.

This game represents an important early test for Paul Hurst's side as they look to climb the table. With six points already on the board, another positive result would solidify their mid-table position and build genuine momentum. The squad's depth and current player statistics are available for review on the club's squad page.
The focus is squarely on maintaining the standards set in their last two performances. A win at Meadow Park would not only avenge the earlier home defeat but also demonstrate the team's growing resilience on the road. It’s a key moment in this early phase of the National League season.
