Stockport vs Stevenage: 15/1 Bet Builder Tip & Best Predictions

Stockport County and Stevenage meet in the second-leg of the League One playoffs on Wednesday 13th May, with the winners meeting either Bradford City or Bolton Wanderers in the final at Wembley.

The first leg was an evenly contested affair, with neither side particularly showing any attacking prowess and the game relying on one big moment to determine the tie. That big moment came in the 94th minute, as a defensive mix-up from Carl Piergianni allowed Ben Osborn to snatch the first leg to the delight of the travelling Stockport faithful.

Ahead of the second leg at Edgeley Park, we have compiled our best predictions as well as a value 15/1 bet builder tip, as Stockport County look to secure their place at Wembley.

Stockport will be the home favourites heading into this fixture given how the Hatters have a one-goal lead from the first leg. Stockport County's home form has been excellent with the Hatters winning five of their last seven home matches, and the Hatters have won three of their previous four matches heading into the second-leg. As for Stevenage, they have only won once in their last five away games.

Louie Barry's season had been curtailed by injury with the on-loan Aston Villa forward featuring in Stockport's last six games. Last season, Barry was exceptional for the Hatters with 15 goals in 23 matches.

Charlie Goode is one of four Stevenage players on 10 yellow cards this season, so undoubtedly he looks assured to be in the referee's eyeline on Wednesday night. The former Northampton Town centre back has committed 0.8 fouls per game this season and has lost possession on average 15 times per game in League one.
