Everton vs Boreham Wood prediction and odds: Frank Lampard's side tipped to secure quarter-final place

Everton will be preparing to not following in the footsteps of Manchester United and recently Tottenham Hotspur by bowing out of the FA Cup to lower league opposition when they welcome non-league side Boreham Wood to Goodison Park

The Toffees are the heavy favourites at 1/8 with Betfred and to make back-to-back quarter-final appearances since 2014 while non-league Boreham Wood are 25/1 and a draw is 17/2.

Frank Lampard's side are priced at 11/1 to lift the trophy for the first time since 1995 while Boreham Wood are a lengthy 1000/1 to achieve the impossible and become the first non-league side to win the FA Cup.

The Blues have beaten Hull City away after extra-time in the third round and cruised past Brentford at home before setting up their match with the National League club.

For the visitors, they have been on an incredible FA Cup journey beating Barnet in the fourth qualifying round before seeing off Eastleigh, St Albans City and Bournemouth this season.

Even more impressive, the promotion hopefuls are yet to concede in the competition so far this season.

Team stats

  • Both teams in matches involving Everton scored in 17 from 28 matches in all competitions this season while for Boreham Wood it is 17 from 39 - both teams to score is 6/4
  • Everton have finished 18 matches this season with three or more goals while for Boreham Wood it is 10 - over 2.5 goals is 4/9

Player to watch

There is a chance for a confidence boost among some Everton players in front of goal so I am going to back Richarlison to score.

The Brazilian striker has only picked up five goals this season, including in the last round against Brentford, so he will be keen to impress in front of new boss Lampard.

H2H

Everton and Boreham Wood have never met before this point.

For Everton, they have never lost to non-league opposition in the FA Cup picking up six wins and a draw in that time. Their last non-league opposition was back in 2012 against then-Conference Premier side Tamworth.
