Statpack: Boro’ Match Stats (17 February 2026)

By Pete H

Here’s your latest statpack; the latest stats, numbers, and milestones fresh off the press after the latest Stevenage game day. We used to do this on Twitter or X or whatever it’s called now. And we’d syndicate it across Bluesky too. But we thought “meh, let’s drive some more people to the site”. That’s the hope and, well, we like to think there’s usually something for everyone once the dust has settled on the latest Boro’ escapade.

Statpack: Stevenage 2-1 Port Vale – 17 February 2026

5️⃣
Boro’ are now unbeaten in five matches against Port Vale at Broadhall Way – and six overall. That said, it’s a first home win over the Valiants in four attempts; the last being a 2-1 victory back in November 2020. There have been three draws since…

4️⃣
For the fourth time in a row, Boro’ have scored at least twice against the Valiants in a single game. And it’s the second time in a row we’ve come from behind to claim all three points; a 2-1 win at Vale Park earlier this season notable for its dramatic about-turn at the death.

1️⃣3️⃣6️⃣
It’s been a while – but we have our first back-to-back league wins since our 2-0 victory over Luton Town at the start of October.

6️⃣
It’s a sixth win in nine games played on 17 February over the years – and a return to winning ways after a 1-0 loss to Derby County two years ago. Our last four on this date actually reads LWLW now – so buckle up for our next match on a 17 February as it could go awry.

1️⃣
A first goal in Boro’ colours for Dan Phillips. Lovely stuff. Plus – a 50th start to go with 24 sub appearances already made.

1️⃣1️⃣5️⃣
Our 18th minute leveller is the earliest we’ve scored a League One goal since our 1-1 draw at home to Bradford City on 25 October. Harvey White scored that day… after 18 minutes.

2️⃣2️⃣7️⃣
Another 2-1 Boro’ win to add to the list.

3️⃣
It’s a hattrick of wins when James Durkin is in town; the ref having taken charge of us on four occasions now. It’s also two wins from two after our win over Rotherham earlier this season.
