The story so far…
The Chairboys have had a strong start to the season, currently sitting in the play-off places on 21 points after 11 league games, one game less than the rest of the league due to last weekend’s match against Bristol Rovers being postponed due to international call ups.
They do come off the back of two defeats though, a 3-2 home defeat to Northampton followed by a 2-0 loss at Bristol Rovers in the JPT.
Their defence has been outstanding so far; conceding just eight goals, the best defensive record in the league, so will surely offer a stern test for the Stevenage attack.
Head to Head:
Neither team have the edge in our head to head record – two wins, two draws and two defeats apiece across all our meetings. Our last win against Wycombe came in December 2011 – a Lawrie Wilson goal at the Lamex was enough to separate the sides.
