Woking will ‘play with the handbrake off’ as they pursue an unlikely play-off push against York City on Saturday.
What's at Stake?
The Cardinals have not lost a game since Craig Ross, Dale Gorman, and former City striker Jake Hyde took their seats in the Woking dugout on an interim basis. They have gone unbeaten in their last seven matches.
Recent Form
Woking currently holds two games in hand on some of their fellow play-off chasers, and with eight games still to play, they are now just nine points adrift of Southend United in seventh. Their recent form has been impressive, with a record of 16W-15D-15L from 46 games, earning them 63 points and a 10th place standing in the National League.
Key Players
Elphick is anticipating a Woking side that will come to attack at the LNER Community Stadium on Saturday. He knows some of their key players, including midfielder Tunji Akinola and striker Joe Gbode, who he previously managed at Hastings United. Akinola is a powerhouse who can handle the ball and get a shot off from anywhere, while Gbode is a dangerous opponent who has scored a hatful of goals in the past.
Upcoming Match
The match against York City will be a tough test for Woking, but they have the momentum on their side. With their recent unbeaten streak and the fact that they have two games in hand, they will be looking to keep their play-off push alive. The match is scheduled to take place on Saturday at the LNER Community Stadium.
