Match Analysis
Stevenage, pushing for the playoffs, welcome a struggling Blackpool side with one of the league's worst away records. Stevenage's defensive solidity at home (11 goals conceded in 19) contrasts with Blackpool's poor away attack (17 in 20). Both teams have shown a tendency for low-scoring matches, especially Stevenage, who have seen under 2.5 goals in 60% of their games. Blackpool's recent form is mixed, but their away performances remain a concern. Expect a tight, cagey contest with Stevenage controlling much of the play, but goals likely at a premium.
