📝 Match Preview: City vs Stevenage (Leasing.com Trophy)

Exeter City are in Leasing.com Trophy quarter-final action on Tuesday night under the lights at St James Park, against Stevenage in a 7pm kick-off.

City go into the match in fine form and have suffered just one defeat in their last seventeen matches in all competitions.

The Grecians have been in fine form in the Leasing.com Trophy, unbeaten and winning their Group after picking up wins against Cheltenham Town, Newport County and West Ham United, followed by beating Oxford United on penalties in the second round and then League One side Ipswich Town 2-1 at St James Park.

The winner of the tie will then be just one match away from the final held at Wembley Stadium, so come and show your support for the Grecians!

Ahead of the match, One of our Own Joel Randall was keen to emphasise the impact the Leasing.com Trophy has had on him, allowing him to show Matt Taylor the kind of player he is and force his way into the first team.

"This competition has played a massive part to me playing in League Two." said Joel. "When I've been on the pitch I've just wanted to do my best and I think I've impressed in some of the games."
