- Venue: Sixfields Stadium (Northampton)
After a solid 2023/24 season and hopes for another mid-table year, Northampton seems in possible trouble as they are only two points ahead of the drop zone after half of the 2024/25 season. Northampton are in a deep crisis as they have won only once in the last 12 matches in all competitions. In the previous game, Northampton played 1-1 on the road against Shrewsbury. The teams were pretty even, so splitting points was probably the fairest outcome.
For most of the previous decade, Stevenage spent time in League Two, but since returning to the third level of English football, they have become a solid mid-table team. Stevenage collected 29 points in 21 league matches, and they shouldn't have problems with relegation. Stevenage's form has been good lately, with only one defeat in the last six matches in all competitions. In the previous game, they won 3-0 at home against Bristol Rovers. The home side converted most of their goal-scoring chances and picked up another victory.
Northampton vs Stevenage pick: Over 2.5 goals
Northampton allowed 17 goals in the last six matches. On the other hand, scored nine goals in the previous five games. We should expect three or more goals in the upcoming tie at Sixfields Stadium.

Stevenage team news
Stevenage's Dan Butler suffered an injury in the previous match, and that could be very important as the defender played in 19 league matches this season. Also, Jake Forster-Caskey is questionable for the first game in 2025.
