Southend vs Woking prediction 25.03.2026 | National League

Southend United enter this fixture with relatively solid overall numbers in the National League. As of now, they are clinging to seventh position in the standings, which would see them qualify for the playoffs, and based on their recent form, they are more than capable of maintaining that spot. Kevin Maher’s side had been on a five-game unbeaten run prior to a 1-0 defeat to Altrincham last weekend, with that loss temporarily preventing Southend from breaking further into the top seven of the National League table.

Key attacking threats include Gus Scott-Morriss and Jack Walker, while Harry Boyes has contributed important assists throughout the season, providing balance between defensive solidity and offensive support from wide areas.

Woking approach this fixture in even better form despite their lower league position. Neal Ardley’s men have picked up three consecutive wins in recent matchweeks, extending their unbeaten run to six games since their last defeat to Rochdale in late February. Last weekend, Woking claimed a hard-fought 3-2 victory over Aldershot, their sixth home win of the season, and they are also unbeaten in their last two away fixtures, which should give them confidence heading into this game.

Offensively, Oliver Sanderson leads the scoring charts for Woking, supported by Harry Beautyman and Joe Andrews, who have contributed both goals and assists this season.
