The League One table is starting to take shape and Stevenage are among a couple of less-fancied teams leading the charge in the third tier.
Boro currently sit second behind Graham Alexander's Bradford City and Alex Revell's side have developed an enviable knack of coming from behind to win games.
Away at Leyton Orient, Stevenage fell behind to a sharp Aaron Connelly strike, but quickly restored parity thanks to a fantastic Harvey White strike from distance. Further goals from Lewis Freestone and Carl Piergianni gave Boro a two-goal cushion and the visitors held on to bag three precious points despite Dom Ballard grabbing a goal back for the hosts.
Notably, Freestone and Piergianni's goals both came from corners swung in by White, and the Hertfordshire club (7) have now scored more goals from set-pieces than any League One team this term.
Resilience is a less-measurable trait, but Stevenage have now come from behind to win on three occasions this season - and the nine points they have racked up from losing positions are more than any other team in the top four tiers in 2025/26.
It's a really impressive stat - check out the Playmaker graphic below for the full rundown of teams who have bounced back to claim league points this season across 'The 92'.
