Forest Green Rovers form and stats

8-6-3 (win-draw-lost) are the League Two numbers at home for Forest Green Rovers so far this season.

Forest haven't scored a league goal since they found the net 220 minutes ago. K. Wilson scored that one.

The home team returns to The innocent New Lawn Stadium after being equal after 90 minutes with Mansfield Town (placed 18th) on their last time out; the League Two game ended 0-0. Heartbreak before that as Forest lost 0-1 at Cambridge United's place.

Bolton Wanderers form and stats

The visitors are W8-D5-L4 on the road this term. That's in the League Two. Things are running smoothly for Wanderers who hasn't tasted defeat in their last twelve matches, regardless of venue and tournament. Their last defeat was against Tranmere Rovers.

Wanderers are travelling after their nice 2-1 home win in the League Two against Walsall (placed 20th). Preceding that game was the away victory against Port Vale with the score of 1-0.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Wanderers have scored 24 goals in 17 league games away. As opposed to that, Wanderers have seen the ball go into their own net 23 times on the road. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 1 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 away matches.

These teams' last encounter with each other was the Bolton Wanderers - Forest 0-1 earlier this season.
