The two teams, who played out a 1-1 draw in their opening game, were due to renew hostilities last week before the tie fell victim to the latest cold snap.

Accrington Stanley were 12 minutes away from getting the job done at Meadow Park on January 7 following Ryan Astley’s sixth-minute opener, but Lee Ndlovu forced a replay in the 78th minute.

Since being held by the fifth-tier side, John Coleman’s side have progressed past Lincoln City in the EFL Trophy and seen off Bristol Rovers in the third division, but their positive run came to a sudden end away to Barnsley on Saturday, losing 3-1 after conceding three goals before the 20-minute mark.

Languishing in 20th place in the League One table and just one point above the relegation zone, Accrington can at least boast a four-game unbeaten run at the Wham Stadium across all competitions, which should serve them well as they try to match their best-ever finish in the FA Cup.

Stanley have made it as far as round four in the 2009-10, 2016-17 and 2018-19 FA Cup campaigns, but Boreham Wood will not roll over lightly as they bid to become the lowest-ranked team in the fourth round.

The Wood have been the draw specialists so far in 2023, playing out 1-1 draws with Barnet and Notts County in the National League either side of their contest against Accrington Stanley, extending their winless run across all competitions to five matches.

Having recorded just one win from their last 11 in the fifth tier, Luke Garrard’s side find themselves in mid-table in 12th place, safely 13 points clear of the relegation zone and just five adrift of Bromley – who have played two game more – in the final playoff spot.

Boreham Wood have recent history when it comes to defeating League One opposition away from home in the FA Cup, beating Bristol Rovers 2-0 in the second round after previously knocking out Wealdstone and Eastleigh in the 2022-23 edition.
