The 2022/23 Vanarama National League season is over and attention now turns to the play-off fixtures that will determine who joins Wrexham in League Two next term.
The six sides that finished directly below the Welsh champions now enter the play-offs at various points depending on league position with a trip to Wembley to come later in May.
This week sees Barnet face local rivals Boreham Wood and Woking host Bromley.
Here’s how to follow the eliminator games before the semi finals start.
Each season, two teams are promoted from the National League to League Two. This season, champions Wrexham have gone up automatically.
The clubs that finish second and third go straight through to the play-off semi-finals where they play the two winners of the quarter-finals, which the teams from fourth to seventh contest; the winners of those semis meet in a final at Wembley, with the victor being promoted.
All ties consist of a single leg.
Just over five miles separate the stadiums of Barnet and Boreham Wood, but the Hive is where this clash will take place.
There were red cards for Nicke Kabamba, Bruno Andrade and Femi Ilesanmi in the corresponding fixture on Boxing Day. The return game took place a week later and ended in a 1-1 draw with four cautions but no more dismissals.

Boreham Wood have been a little better than Barnet but still inconsistent in the late stages of the campaign. A win on the final day helped them take sixth from Bromley and their better form makes them slight favourites over their north London rivals.

The second quarter-final should be a belter. Both sides picked up ten points from their final six league matches but it’s Woking who have home advantage after finshing fourth to Bromley’s seventh.
