Sterling travels to Stafford looking to prove the algorithms wrong, but the numbers suggest the home crowd and field advantage will be just enough to tip the scales. This is one of those games where you'll either trust the analytics or go with your gut, because there's virtually nothing separating these two teams. Either way, expect a tight battle that could come down to the final possession.
