Venue: The Lamex Stadium (6722 seats)

Season ticket holders at The Lamex Stadium haven't seen too many victories this season, with Stevenage languishing in the 24th position so far. The guesting Walsall will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

Stevenage form and stats

With 2 League Two wins, 6 draws and 9 defeats from their home games, Stevenage are certainly not brimming with confidence. Problems are piling up for Stevenage as they are struggling in their away games as well, taking their total losing streak to a running total of seven games. This streak could be one for the history books. With nine home League Two games in a row without a win, the Stevenage fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Morecambe game long ago, can be stopped today.

Stress levels are on the rise for Stevenage's attacking players as they have now played 244 minutes without scoring in a league game. C. Carter was their last goal scorer.

In their previous game, the manager G. Westley led his Stevenage to a defeat in the League Two match away at Crawley Town. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at The Lamex Stadium. Preceding that match was a defeat to Salford City (0-1).

Stevenage aren't scoring a lot here at The Lamex Stadium in the league, with only 10 goals from 17 games. On the other hand, Stevenage have conceded 22 goals.
