Forest Green Rovers, Recent FormThe 1-0 away defeat to MK Dons will not have sat easily with the Forest Green Rovers squad, who would not have been pleased to squander all three points.
It's fair to say that manager Ian Burchnall will be pretty happy with his squad's ability to find the net of late, having scored 4 goals in their last 6 matches. That said, he will also be aware there is still work to do at the back, where they have shipped 9 goals in those same matches as well as some valuable points. Finding the net regularly has been an issue for them in their home stadium, with zero goals scored in 3 of their last 6 matches. Having shipped at least a single goal in 21 of their 23 league matches this season, they don't have an enviable defensive record this campaign.
They're experiencing a disappointing spell of form, having lost 3 of their last 6 games and picking up only 2 wins. If they want to get anywhere this season, they'll need to do something very quickly to fix their home form, having lost 7 of the first 11 league games at The Bolt New Lawn.
Goalscorer Mathew Stevens will be planning to get himself on the scoresheet once more, having notched up 3 goals in his last 6 league matches for Forest Green Rovers.
Burton Albion, Recent FormWhen Burton Albion last played in the league they faced Lincoln City and produced an outstanding 3-0 home win.
While they have shown an appetite for goals over the last 6 matches, clocking up 10, they have not had it all their own way at the back and have given away 9 goals and some valuable points in the process. Chalking up goals on the road is something their fans have become accustomed to, with them hitting the net in 5 of their last 6 matches. They have shown some defensive frailties on the road of late, having given away at least 1 goal in 10 of their past 11 away league matches, making points very hard to come by.
Their recent poor run of form away from home has left them without an away win in 6 games.
On an individual basis, Victor Adeboyejo will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 4 goals in Burton Albion's last 6 league games.
Last time these two teams met in the league it ended in disappointment for Forest Green Rovers, losing 3-2 to Burton Albion.
Forest Green have scored in each of their last 7 games at home in the league against The Brewers.
In the last 3 league meetings between the teams, Burton has taken all 3 points and has not lost to Forest Green in 3 games.
With no real injury worries, Forest Green manager Ian Burchnall will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
Burton manager Dino Maamria has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
