Bristol Rovers form and stats

Bristol Rovers have collected 21 points from their League One home games so far after 5-6-4. The home team are struggling everywhere these days as they haven't won a game, regardless of being the home or the away team, in eleven attempts.

Bristol Rovers travelled for their previous game, a trip to Tranmere Rovers that ended 0-0. Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Wycombe Wanderers (1-3).

The Bristol Rovers fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 19 in 15 matches. Bristol Rovers have conceded 17 in these home matches.

Blackpool form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Blackpool so far with only 14 points returning home. The records show 2-8-5 (win-draw-lose). The loyal fans travelling with their beloved Blackpool have enjoyed the stadium food more than the matches as the visitors have gone ten consecutive matches without winning on the road. The last time three points were secured away was the Doncaster Rovers game.

Blackpool failed to get anything from their last game, a League One home match vs Gillingham (placed 11th) that ended with defeat 2-3. That result followed a home victory 2-1 versus Southend United.

Late heartbreak for Blackpool in the Gillingham match, as the deciding 2-3 goal came deep into overtime.

Blackpool are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 16 away goals from 15 games (in the league). Blackpool have conceded 18 goals in these away matches.

Head 2 Head

These teams' last encounter with each other was the Blackpool - Bristol Rovers 2-0 earlier this season. Head-to-head totals (for the last five meetings): Bristol Rovers won three games, one match ended with a draw and Blackpool has one win. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: three / two
