Stevenage vs Salford City Predictions

• Only Leyton Orient have won more than Stevenage’s 19 victories
• Carlisle are the only side to have scored more than Salford’s 57 this season

High-scoring affair fancied in promotion clash

Stevenage have a marginal advantage in an ultra-competitive League Two promotion race with a game in hand on the chasing pack and a point lead over their nearest rivals Carlisle and Northampton.

The race looks set to go down to the wire and the Boro will need every point they can get to fend off the challenge of their nearest pursuers, Steve Evans’ side have recovered from a major wobble to win three of their last five matches and will be hoping to keep that up against Salford.

The visitors have been involved in a number of high-scoring affairs recently and these two sides are among the top scorers in League Two. They could put on a show in this one.

Hosts can finish with a flourish

Salford are also desperate for three points as they chase promotion via the play-offs but they may fall just short in this clash. Stevenage have won 14 of their 18 home games this season and that form in their own back yard may be enough to see them come out on top in what is set to be an enthralling encounter.
