Sutton United vs Woking
Vanarama National League
Monday 5th May 2025
15:00 Kick-Off
Woking’s last game of what has been a seemingly never ending 2024/25 season comes away to a Sutton side who the Cards could leapfrog with a win at Gander Green Lane on Bank Holiday Monday.
Neal Ardley’s side were down to the bare bones against Eastleigh but managed to gain a point with a 2-2 draw at the Laithwaite, and he’ll hope that several names might be back in contention or at the very least able to fill the squad up to 18.
Ultimately, the Cards did the hard work in an April schedule where 12 points from 6 games means they can watch the relegation picture unfold with no involvement. Make the short trip down to Sutton and cheer on the Cards in competitive action for the last time until August!
Opposition Watch
Steve Morison’s Sutton side have finished the season in less than convincing fashion. Slim chances of a playoff finish were ended by a poor run of form which has seen just four league wins since February as well as a shock exit in the FA Trophy quarter finals at home to Spennymoor Town, recently followed up by defeat in the National League Cup final against Leeds U21s.
Nonetheless, Sutton’s first season back in the National League can be considered a success because of shining lights like Lewis Simper and Will Davies. Former Woking loanee Simper has developed a reputation for his striking from outside the box, with seven league goals to his name in what is the 23-year-old’s busiest campaign yet. Davies has 20 in all competitions after joining from York last summer, with the striker certainly on a few summer wish lists for bigger clubs.
Home form has let the U’s down this season with only five teams boasting a worse home record, and only five teams boasting a better away record. Mid table is therefore where they belong and will finish, with the key for Morison to develop some stability with his young and promising squad.

Last Time Out
Goals from Lewis Simper and Jeremy Sivi proved enough for Sutton to win 2-1 back in September despite a consolation from Tom Leahy.
In 14 games since Sutton were promoted to the Conference South in 2011, Woking have won seven, Sutton six and there has been one draw.
