Burton will be aiming to make amends for a 2-1 EFL Cup defeat to Blackburn Rovers when they take on Stevenage at Pirelli Stadium in the season opener. The Brewers have won just two of their last 10 matches in all competitions, although their home record has been slightly more encouraging, with three wins from their last nine. Burton have also seen BTTS land in 83% of their recent home matches, while they have scored in every one of those games. Krubally and Tilt are expected to miss out through injury, while summer arrivals Matthew Dennis and Gbemi Arubi are in line to make their debuts.
Stevenage, on the other hand, head into the League One opener on a three-game winning run, including a 2-1 EFL Cup victory over Wycombe. The visitors have won four of their last 10 overall and have been particularly effective on the road, averaging 1.0 goal per game. However, they have conceded 1.8 goals per away match, meaning Burton could create problems. Forward Josh Magennis is expected to make his full debut. Stevenage lead the H2H record, winning three of the seven previous meetings.
Burton have seen BTTS in 83% of their recent home games and given Stevenage's attacking potential, there is big value in betting on Both Teams to Score, alongside Over 2.5 goals (4 of the 7 previous H2H meetings produced at least three goals).
This League 1 match will be played on Saturday 15 August 2026 at 15:00.
