It’s funny how fortunes in a season change. At the end of September Stevenage were looking a really solid top six side but then everything kind of fell apart for them. They have suffered four defeats in their last five games now and need to get some momentum going again badly. That won’t be spiritually easy though as they face league leaders Notts County on the weekend at the Lamex Stadium. County have gone a little patchy but produced a great home win last time out. County are 6/5 to collect the away win with Stevenage at 21/10.

Logo Notts CountyStevenage Form
Just three points from the last fifteen available have Stevenage collected. It’s been a severe drop off in form from them but their home form is not all that bad. They lost their last home match against Forest Green but that is their only loss in their last five at home in the league. Overall they are W 4 D2 L2 at home. As a positive, they have averaged exactly two goals per game at home this season and they have been leading at half time in six of their eight games at the Lamex. Stevenage to be winning at half time is a 5/2 poke. There should be goals in this as 75% of their home fixtures have seen at least three goals in them.
Notts County Form
Notts County are still top of the table despite a sequence of W2 D2 L2 in their last six played. They have remained unbeaten on home soil, but they have failed to pick up a win in any of their last three road games, losing two of them. Overall they are W4 D1 L3 away from home this term. So their away form has just dried up a little bit and surprisingly all three of their away defeats have been by more than a one-goal margin. 73% of their goals scored in League Two this season away from home have happened in the second half of matches.
Head to Head News
Stevenage bagged themselves four points from their two league meetings with Notts County last season but they have won just one of their last five against them. Both teams have scored in only two of the last six league meetings. Stevenage have lost two of their last three on home soil against County.
Top Betting Tips
The slips from Notts County recently out on the road will be of concern to them and it could make them a little vulnerable for this fixture. Stevenage haven’t had any problems sticking the ball in the back of the net at the Lamex Stadium and therefore there should be value in backing a home win in this one.
