Dean Parrett starts in midfield for Boro, while former Stevenage man Simon Heslop is in for the visitors
Dean Parrett makes his first start in a Stevenage shirt for six months today in what is a big boost for Boro.
The midfielder made his comeback from a lengthy layoff off the bench last week at Oxford United, but starts today.
Sam Beasant’s foot injury has not cleared up in time for today’s game, so Chris Day remains in goal.
For the visitors, Simon Heslop, a Boro player last season, starts. As does Reggie Lambe, the Bermudan international.
