温布利等待流浪者队或虾队
森林绿队和绍森德队将于周三在新草坪举行全国联赛附加赛。
这场比赛的获胜者将在温布利的决赛中对阵约克或奥尔德姆，并确保重返足球联赛；主场优势为The Green提供了关键优势。
绍森德在赛季的最后一天预订了他们的附加赛席位，然后从3-1落后的情况下回来，在加时赛的首场附加赛中战胜了罗奇代尔。虾人队有点幸运地走到了这一步，但随着流浪者队本赛季将主场变成了一座堡垒，这笔财富可能会耗尽。
Forest Green本赛季在联赛中只输了一场主场比赛，而这场失利是在竞选接近尾声时对阵盖茨黑德的，当时他们没有自动晋级的机会，可以轻松地获得第二或第三名。
这些球队在联赛中确实打了两场2-2的僵局，但绍森德在这两场比赛中都需要相当晚的扳平比分，在温布利决赛中的位置岌岌可危，主场观众在他们身后，森林绿队可以在最重要的时候战胜虾队。
这可能是一场得分相当高的比赛，森林绿队以3-1获胜是正确的得分选择，可能还有一个迟到的进球来结束平局。在两次联赛会议和绍森德队的第一场附加赛中，都有超过3.5个进球，流浪者队在最后9场主场比赛中有6场进了多个球。
克里斯蒂安·多伊奇本赛季在流浪者队的41场比赛中贡献了12个进球，看起来是随时进球的合理竞争者。这位32岁的球员在最后几场比赛中很少使用，大概是为了确保他在附加赛中保持新鲜感，尽管只出场了17分钟，但他在上次与哈特尔普尔1-1战平的比赛中还是命中了目标。

Wembley awaits Rovers or Shrimpers
Forest Green and Southend meet at the New Lawn on Wednesday in the National League play-offs.
The winner of this game will come up against either York or Oldham in the final at Wembley and secure a return to the Football League – and home advantage gives The Green a key edge.
Southend booked their play-off spot on the final day of the season and then came back from 3-1 down to overcome Rochdale in extra time in their opening play-off fixtures. The Shrimpers have rode their luck a bit to get this far, but that fortune may run out as Rovers have made their home ground a bit of a fortress this season.
Forest Green lost just one of their home games in the league this season and that defeat came against Gateshead towards the end of the campaign, when they were out of the running for automatic promotion and comfortably in line to finish either second or third.
These sides did play out two 2-2 stalemates in the league but Southend needed fairly late equalisers on both occasions, and with a place in the Wembley final at stake and a home crowd behind them Forest Green can get a win over the line against the Shrimpers when it matters most.
This could be a fairly high-scoring game and a 3-1 win for Forest Green is the correct score pick, possibly with a late strike to kill the tie off. Over 3.5 goals landed in both league meetings and in Southend’s first play-off game, and Rovers have scored multiple goals in six of their last nine home fixtures.
Christian Doidge looks a reasonable contender for an anytime goal after a solid contribution of 12 goals in 41 games for Rovers this season. The 32-year-old was used sparingly in the final few fixtures, presumably to ensure he remained fresh for the play-offs, and he was on target in the 1-1 draw with Hartlepool last time out despite featuring for just 17 minutes.
