Stevenage have built a solid foundation this season, particularly at home, where they boast an impressive win rate and a stingy defence, conceding less than a goal per game on average. Their overall season sees them scoring just enough to grind out results and rarely lose. However, their most recent form has seen them slip into draws, with their last outing producing a disappointing loss where they conceded twice.

Plymouth's season has been a tale of two halves, with their away form significantly outperforming their home record. They score more on the road and have a remarkable recent run of three consecutive away wins, netting an impressive number of goals in that spell, including a dominant 5-1 victory in their very last match. Despite this attacking prowess, their overall defensive record and a high number of losses suggest they can be vulnerable.
