Stevenage currently experiencing an underwhelming patch of form, having lost three of their previous four matches in the third tier.
Alex Revell's side began that run of results with a narrow loss against Peterborough United, before they bounced back with a 1-0 win over Mansfield Town.
Unfortunately for Stevenage, they have gone on to suffer consecutive 2-0 defeats against Cambridge and Rotherham United.
They would have been particularly frustrated with Saturday's loss to a Rotherham side managed by Steve Evans, who left his role as Stevenage boss in April to take over the reins at the New York Stadium.
Stevenage kept the Millers at bay for 70 minutes until they conceded two quickfire goals to slump to their second home defeat of the season.
After seeing a run of three consecutive home wins come to an end, the Boro will be looking to bounce back by claiming their first-ever competitive win over Bolton.
