Stevenage have won just one of their eight matches against Shrewsbury Town in the EFL (D2 L5) with that victory coming in a League Two meeting between the two sides in September 2014 (1-0). This was also the only such match that Shrewsbury Town have failed to score against Stevenage.

This match is the first league meeting between Stevenage and Shrewsbury Town since August 2015 (3-2 win for Shrewsbury), and is the first League One meeting between the two sides since April 2014 (1-0 win for Shrewsbury).

After defeating Northampton on MD1, Stevenage are looking to win their opening two league games for the third consecutive season.

Shrewsbury are seeking victories in their first two games of a league campaign for the first time since 2017-18 under Paul Hurst.
