Our prediction for this League 2 match:
Stevenage play host to Sutton at their Broadhall Way on day 8 of the new League Two campaign. The Boro are eager to secure automatic promotion to League One, and the bookies see them as favourites to win Tuesday’s clash. Luke Norris, who scored the winner from the penalty spot against Crawley Town, returns to the starting XI, while there are no fresh injury worries in the home team.
The visitors, on the other hand, suffered a dip in form, with the team losing to both Salford City and Gillingham in the previous two league matches. Given Stevenage’s 100% home record (5-0-0) in the 2022/2023 League Two campaign, we do not believe that Matt Gray’s men are capable of grabbing something from the midweek fixture. Sutton defender Ben Goodlife remains on the sidelines with a long-term injury.
