Form Guide
The Wood are now unbeaten in four matches and sit in third place in the table, their highest ever National League position at this stage of the season.
Garrard’s side drew 2-2 with Tranmere Rovers at the weekend, but were unlucky not to win the fixture, having lead until the 90th minute.
The Wood led the National League table for 22 minutes on Saturday, an incredible feat for little old Boreham Wood; a side who were playing their football in the Isthmian Leagues just 10-years ago.
Meanwhile, Tranmere spent the 2007/08 campaign in League One, the same season in which Wrexham were relegated from the Football League.
Bruno Andrade is now on five goals in as many games and will be looking to extend his scoring run even further on Monday.
Wrexham arrive at Meadow Park in 11th place, following a win at home to Woking on Saturday.
From the Dugout – Luke Garrard
“We can go into the fixture on Monday with a belief and a confidence, but I need the boys to look after themselves now, I have got a group who are very experienced and who understand their bodies.
“But, I need to call upon them again on Monday, because no game at this level is easy, there are 46 tough fixtures at this level, so I will need them to go again.
“The lads will have a nice journey home, and they can enjoy it until we land back at Meadow Park, but then the focus is back to Wrexham on Monday.
“Wrexham have gone and beat Woking today 1-0 and Dean Keates has brought in a lot of experience at this level, I think that they have got real quality.
“I know the way that Dean Keates like to play, he has got good quality in wide areas, but it is for us to play our game.
“If we can go and implement what we know we can do then, and show them what we are about, then I think that we are a match for the majority of sides at this level and we have proven that.”
