Stevenage manager Gary Smith told BBC Three Counties Radio:

"They're a good side. A very well organised side.

"A side that are in a good spot and in good form. It will be a tough game there, there is no doubt about that.

"But as I've said before, our team are in a great mindset, are a confident group and a hugely spirited group.

"We are testing ourselves against the best sides now and that's where we want to be."

Prediction:

2-1 Wednesday.

Think tonight is going to be a very tough game, we may not be able to name many of their players but they are in very god form, good away from home and haven't slipped up since losing their Manager. This lot are no mugs, they battered us at their place. They just shoot on sight.

Hopefully they have got the Spurs game on Saturday on their minds.

If we don't turn up in the first half we could be in for a long night. 2-2 I reckon.

Apologies for the wee wee tail-eyed writing. The copy and paste was a flipping arse.

Agree. I've predicted a win, but can see us being absolutely battered. Just feel we're the sort of team to ride the storm out and grab a couple of goals.

Come on lads!
