Stevenage Borough
- Stevenage Borough have won two, drawn two and lost one of their last five League One games.
- This is a season of firsts for Stevenage Borough, whose manager since April 2024, Alex Revell, has assembled a club that has never played with a more narrow or compact shape in the league.
- This season, the Lime’s home record has been a standout - W13, D7, L2 from 22 home fixtures.
- They’ve scored an average of 1.18 per home game, but conceded just 0.59 per home match in League One, and will look to continue this impressive run when they host Wigan Athletic at Broadhall Way.
- Stevenage sit 6th in the table after amassing 72 points from 45 games, 16 more than Wigan Athletic in 16th.
Wigan Athletic
- Wigan Athletic have won three, drawn one and lost one of their last five League One matches.
- Since Gary Caldwell’s appointment in February 2026, Wigan Athletic have moved away from the wing-back systems of old towards a much more structured and conservative approach to games.
- Wigan’s system does allow for overloads wide, where the hosts could get caught out as they transition from the compact shape that has made them so difficult to break down.
Head-to-Head
The Lime haven’t beaten Wigan in their last two meetings , and the most recent reverse fixture at the DW Stadium ended in a 0-0 draw .
Key Players
- Wigan’s Joe Taylor has 15 goals in 39 League One appearances this term, making him the Latics’ most prolific goal-getter this year.
- Callum Wright has stepped up recently with two goals over the past five matches, scoring two of Wigan’s last four goals.
- Dan Kemp has been in red-hot form of late for Stevenage, scoring three of their last six goals over their past five games.
Betting Insights
- Over 2.5 match goals is priced at 2.27, with both teams to score at 2.15, both of which look good value.
- I think Stevenage are the favourites at 1.66 given their consistency and home form.
Prediction
Stevenage Borough look to take the spoils here, though it will be a hard-fought 90 minutes .
