Yeovil are still struggling around at the wrong end of the table, sitting down in the bottom third and with no consistency to speak of behind them. The Glovers need to put some kind of home form together to get themselves up the table. Stevenage have had some mixed fortunes of their own recently with three defeats in their last four games and they too are looking for an improvement in form. Stevenage are the favourites for this one at Ladbrokes to the tune of 17/11 leaving Yeovil at 17/10.

FC StevenageYeovil Form
The Glovers have had a season full of inconsistencies. Wins have been too few and far between and they haven’t won back to back matches in the division yet this term. They collected a point out at Barnet last weekend to leave them with the just the one win in their last five league games (D1 L3) but the lone win in that sequence did happen at home at least in their most recent home fixture, leaving them with a W3 D3 L1 record at Huish Park this season. They have only conceded six goals in seven home games and it suggests that they could at least grind out a draw. Just 29% of their home games have gone over the 2.5 goal line.
Stevenage Form
Stevenage have lost three of their last four league games and suffered a bitter blow on home soil last weekend in a shock defeat against bottom-two side Forest Green. Combined with them having lost their last two away games in the division, then they suddenly look a little bit vulnerable going into this one. Boro are W3 D1 L3 on their travels in the league this season and have only managed just over a goal per game away from home. They have only been leading at half time in one away game this season, which isn’t a great stat. Again you could be looking at a low scoring game with just 29% of their away games going over 2.5 goals.
Head to Head News
There were two drawn matches played out between these two last season and all four of the previous League Two fixtures between the clubs have ended level as well. Overall in the head to head, there have been eleven draws, with Yeovil topping out an 8-4 record from the rest of the meetings.
Top Betting Tips
Under 2.5 goals looks to be the way to roll with this fixture and it’s hard to pick out a winner in this one. The Glovers have actually done alright on home soil this season and with the number of drawn matches between them recently, the draw should have appeal at 23/10 when these two meet up again on the weekend.
