Stevenage take on Bristol Rovers in League One at the Lamex Stadium.
Our Three Predictions For Stevenage vs Bristol Rovers
- First Prediction: Stevenage To Win – 7/10
- Second Prediction: Under 2.5 Goals – 29/50
- Third Prediction: Both Teams To Score – No – 67/100
First Prediction For Stevenage vs Bristol Rovers – Stevenage To Win – 7/10
Bristol Rovers enter this game in a terrible run of form having not recorded a victory since beating Mansfield Town in November. That is their only win in their last nine fixtures and they currently sit 19th in League One, just three points above the drop zone. They will be hoping for a change in fortunes though, having replaced Matt Taylor with Inigo Calderon.
Stevenage did lose on Boxing Day at the Lamex Stadium, although that came against a Wycombe Wanderers team that is challenging for the title. Prior to that, the Hertfordshire-based side were unbeaten in five with two wins and three draws. They will be hopeful of returning to winning ways against a team which has lost four of their last five.
Second Prediction For Stevenage vs Bristol Rovers – Under 2.5 Goals – 29/50
Stevenage aren’t a team that score a lot of goals and have hit the back of the net five times in their last six games. This included two 0-0 draws, but the stats from the season as a whole seem to indicate that should Stevenage win, it will be a low scoring affair. Alex Revell’s side have seven victories this season, with five of them producing under three goals.
Bristol Rovers are somewhat of an unknown entity entering this fixture due to their managerial change, but they are a team low on confidence. They are averaging less than one goal a game this season and failed to score in recent defeats against Blackpool, Leyton Orient and Birmingham City.
Third Prediction For Stevenage vs Bristol Rovers – Both Teams To Score – No – 67/100
Looking at Stevenage’s seven wins this season, they have only conceded in one of them. This was the 2-1 victory over Stockport County earlier this month, but only one of their last five league games have seen both teams score. Overall, their 20 league games this season have seen both teams score just five times.
Bristol Rovers follow a similar pattern and looking at their last 10 outings, there has just been two games where the Pirates have both scored and conceded in the same fixture.

Full Preview of the Game: Last Results and Head-To-Head
Stevenage enter this game in the better form of the two teams, although ended a run of five games without a defeat on Boxing Day with a 3-0 reverse against Wycombe Wanderers. Their other results in December saw them beat Northampton Town and Stockport County before earning a good point against Blackpool at Bloomfield Road. They now sit 16th in the League One table, although are just seven points above the bottom four.
Bristol Rovers were considered amongst the outside picks to challenge for a play-off place this season. However, their campaign has far from gone to plan and they made the decision to part company with manager Matt Taylor earlier this month. The Gas enjoyed an excellent October, winning three of five games, but have just one victory since. Their 3-1 defeat against Exeter City on Boxing Day extended their winless run to five games.
Rovers have won in their last two visits to the Lamex, winning 4-0 in February 2022 before a 3-2 victory in February this year. Stevenage’s last win in this fixture came in August 2021, although they have never recorded three points at home against this opponent in EFL competition.
