Stevenage just closed things out with a win in the cup, and before that they had won in the league in consecutive matches. So this is a game where they want to keep that momentum going at home. This season Stevenage have scored 11 and conceded 8 in 7 matches. The attack is decent enough, but the defence still shows spells where it gets opened up. Wigan Athletic, meanwhile, arrive in a much heavier state, having lost five of the seven matches they have played, and they had just been thrashed in the league before steadying themselves to win in the cup. If Stevenage get the opening goal, in the kind of game they tend to produce at home, the match should flow toward the hosts, who control the tempo and squeeze Wigan into having to open up, a situation the visitors have not shown they handle especially well.
