Tranmere vs Stevenage: Final Previews, Team Analysis

Tranmere Preview

Tranmere were one of the top teams for the bigger part of the previous season and for a long time, they were sitting in 2nd place or 3rd place beneath the leaders. Then, the team went on a terrible streak that put them way behind the leaders. In the end, they did not reach the playoffs after finishing in 9th place and 2 points below the promotion zone. They had one of the best defenses but also one of the weakest attacks in the entire league.

Stevenage Preview

Stevenage struggled for the better part of the previous season and spent the entire campaign fighting for their place in the league. They only managed to improve a few months before the end and showed some of that hidden potential. The team was the second-weakest away team in the entire league at the end of the campaign and this is why we do not expect them to be great against Tranmere at the start here.
