Notts County team news vs Boreham Wood as XI named for play-off semi-final

Luke Williams has made no changes to his Notts County side for just the fifth time this season as they welcome Boreham Wood to Meadow Lane for their National League play-off semi-final.

The Magpies boss made six changes for the final league game of the season which ended with a 1-1 draw with York City last Saturday - Shaq Forde netting late on to share the spoils.

And the Notts boss has chosen to stick with that same starting line-up in the hopes they can book a trip to Wembley Stadium next Saturday afternoon.

The one decision that was perhaps put under the microscope was whether Williams would start Sam Austin or Cedwyn Scott - the Notts boss electing to use the former Kidderminster Harriers midfielder from the start having featured as an impact substitute for most of the campaign.

Macaulay Langstaff leads the line for the Magpies as he looks to continue his exceptional goal-scoring in the league into the play-offs, hoping to break his duck against one of the few sides he is yet to score against this term.

The only change in personnel from the matchday 16 sees Frank Vincent drop out, with Williams opting to put a goalkeeper on the bench this afternoon - Archie Mair getting the nod ahead of Tiernan Brooks.

Notts County line-up: Slocombe; Cameron, Baldwin, Rawlinson, Chicksen, Nemane; Bostock, Palmer; Austin, Rodrigues, Langstaff.

SUBS: Mair, Brindley, O'Brien, Jones, Scott.
