Exeter City form and stats

A strong away win before that one, visiting Bristol Rovers and winning 4-3.The hosts are favourites to win this game, with an estimated chance of about 55-60% of that outcome. Earlier Exeter City matches with similar probabilities have ended with 4 wins, 2 draws and 1 defeat (from 7 games).
A decent goal production from Exeter in their home games so far, with 18 goals from 12 league matches. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. 16 goals have been conceded.

Forest Green Rovers might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match.

McAllister scored one goal and dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times.
A loss against Burton Albion was the result prior to that, in a home game.Many goals are not expected from the visiting Forest Green Rovers as they have only managed to score 11 times from 12 away games in the league. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. Rovers have conceded 26 goals in these games.
