Bristol Rovers form and stats

All-inclusive League One statistics at home this season for Bristol Rovers are 5-4-5 (wins-draws-losses). Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for Bristol with their four defeats in a row. Not since the Cambridge United game, 38 days ago, have they avoided a loss.

Bristol Rovers haven't scored a league goal since they found the net 180 minutes ago. Collins scored that one.

The fans are hoping that Bristol Rovers will strike back in this fixture, putting things right after the 0-1 away loss in the match against Lincoln City (placed 16th). Bristol's goalkeeper Balcombe was extremely busy against Lincoln City, saving the team from a uglier defeat with a stunning eight saves.

Ahead of that match, Bristol Rovers lost 0-2 at home to Milton Keynes Dons.

The match schedule is unforgiving for Bristol Rovers as they have a new game in only four days, a League One match thankfully also at home. Burton Albion are visiting.

Bristol Rovers have proved capable of finding the net in their games here at Memorial Stadium with 21 goals in 14 league matches. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Bristol defense is not exactly impregnable. 24 goals conceded from 14 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.
