Bristol Rovers, Recent FormA 2-2 draw against Exeter City will be viewed as a positive outcome for Bristol Rovers and a valuable point into the bargain.
With 8 goals scored in their last 6, they might have expected more points from that run of matches, but having conceded 14 goals along the way, things haven't been going their way points-wise. Having found the back of the net in 5 of their last 6 matches at Memorial Stadium, they are developing an impressive scoring record at home. Joey Barton will be slightly concerned about his defence, after only managing 1 clean sheet in their last 6 home games.
A win for Bristol Rovers is just a distant memory, having not won a single match in 8 games.
On an individual basis, Ryan Loft will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 4 goals in Bristol Rovers' last 6 league games.
Cambridge United, Recent FormOn the back of a tough 3-0 away defeat by Ipswich Town, Cambridge United manager Mark Bonner will have some work to do to get his team in a confident mindset.
While they have been reasonably effective at circumventing their opponents defence, scoring 5 in their last 6 games, it's largely been tit for tat with their own defence proving to be equally ineffectual, conceding 11, and leading to valuable points being dropped. Scoring goals away from home is something they have consistently achieved of late, having notched up goals in 4 of their last 6 matches on their travels. They have produced a defensive record this season that they won't be proud of, having conceded at least 1 goal in 10 of their 12 league matches.
They have lost 4 of their last 6 matches, which will be a focus of concern, but their 2 wins in that period did produce some valuable points nevertheless.
Goalscorer Sam Smith will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 3 goals in his last 6 league matches for Cambridge United.
Cambridge United will be looking to forget their last league encounter with Bristol Rovers, when a slew of goals ended in a heavy 3-0 defeat.
The U's have conceded at least one goal in each of their last 3 league meetings with Bristol R.
In the last 2 league meetings between the teams, Bristol R has taken all 3 points and has not lost to Cambridge in 3 games.
Without any real injury worries ahead of this clash, Bristol R manager Joey Barton will be happy to have a full squad to pick from to help execute his game plan.
Without any real injury worries ahead of this clash, Cambridge manager Mark Bonner will be happy to have a full squad to pick from to help execute his game plan.
