Stevenage's Carabao Cup second round match against Reading will be televised live on Sky Sports Football. The game at the Lamex Stadium kicks off at 7:45pm on Tuesday.

The television coverage is set for Sky Sports Football. The channel will begin its build-up programming ahead of the 7:45pm kick-off time.

This is the primary method for UK-based viewers to follow the action from the Lamex Stadium.
Stevenage enter the Carabao Cup at the second round stage after finishing 14th in League One last season. Their cup run presents a welcome distraction from league concerns, where they trail early leaders Blackpool by five points. The team's immediate focus is on this cup tie before returning to league action.
This cup match arrives during a congested period for Steve Evans's side. Their next League One fixture is an away trip to face Barnsley, who are currently 9th, on Saturday, September 5th. Balancing cup ambitions with the need to climb the league table will be a key challenge. The squad depth will be tested, and the manager may look to rotate players. The full schedule for the coming weeks is available on our fixtures page.
Stevenage's league form shows two draws and a loss from their opening three matches. They have managed to find the net four times but have been slightly leaky at the back, conceding five. Reading, their opponents, are competing in League Two this season and will view this cup tie as a chance to cause an upset against higher-division opposition. The historical context adds intrigue, but current performance is the priority for the Boro. The team's statistical profile for the campaign can be examined on our stats page.
Stevenage host Reading at the Lamex Stadium on Tuesday night, with the match scheduled for a 7:45pm start.
