Match Preview: Stevenage (H)

Preview Stevenage

For the first time since August 24, City return to action at SJP to take on Stevenage in a 12:30pm kick-off.

City will be looking to bounce back from a late defeat at Blackpool last time out as they host Boro at the Park. With the match being an earlier 12:30pm kick-off, make sure you are familiar with the changes to the key timings below in this article.

Gary Caldwell's thoughts

Speaking ahead of the 12:30pm kick-off, Gary was keen to emphasise the importance of the home crowd to a positive result: "When the stadium is in full flow it makes it a difficult place to play for the opposition" said Gary.

"We are looking for noise and energy. The Big Bank always has a job to play and so does the whole stadium in helping the players win the game. Hopefully we can get as many supporters in as possible to help us get a win and get the season going again."
