Rochdale vs Boreham Wood: match statistics
Rochdale presents impressive home form with 83% of matches won at home and only one defeat in the last 5 overall matches. The hosts sit 2nd in the table, boast a goal difference of +18 in home matches, and an impressive 58% clean sheets at their own stadium. Boreham Wood, despite a decent 4th place in the league, is going through a form crisis – in the last 5 matches they recorded 4 defeats and conceded 13 goals. The visitors also have a weaker xG Against (1.47) in away matches compared to the hosts (1.03 in home matches), indicating greater susceptibility to conceding goals. Rochdale dominates possession (59% vs 57%), has better shot accuracy, and has not recorded a single goalless match at their own stadium this season.
