The story so far…
Wycombe come into this game in 9th place in League 2, just one point off the playoff places. Their league form has been pretty steady all season and they took Aston Villa to an FA Cup third round replay, however the Chairboys have seen their last five games all finish 1-0, losing three of those games.
Gareth Ainsworth's men have seven wins, four draws and six defeats from their 17 home league games this season, during which they've only scored 21 goals whilst conceding 20.
Our last meeting...
Stevenage beat Wycombe 2-1 at The Lamex Stadium earlier this season in a game which will be remembered for goalkeeper Jesse Joronen scoring from his own half. A freak goal from the on-loan Fulham man gave Boro a 1-0 lead at the break, with loan striker Armand Gnanduillet heading in a second on the hour. Wycombe’s Max Kretzchmar reduced the deficit with a thumping header of his own with 10 minutes remaining to leave a tense finish but Boro hung on to record their first win in eight games.
Head to Head:
Stevenage just have the edge over Wycombe in past meetings. From seven games, Stevenage have three wins, Wycombe have two and there have been two draws. Stevenage are also unbeaten at Adams Park with two 1-0 victories and last year's 2-2 draw (below) under their belts.
