Bristol Rovers
- Bristol Rovers have won four of their last five League Two games and are on a three-game winning streak.
- Rovers are in 16th spot on 46 points after 40 games.
- The momentum and clarity that Steve Evans has brought since mid-December make Bristol Rovers the team to watch this Friday.
- Evans has organised the Pirates into a 4-3-3 shape that can play with a much higher tempo and press together in midfield.
Fleetwood Town
- Fleetwood Town sit 13th with 55 points after 40 games.
- Since Matt Lawlor took over in late January they are difficult to break down, patiently build-up and counter-attack well from deep.
- Fleetwood have won only one, drawn three and lost one of their last five League Two contests.
- They have a poor away record this season with 6 wins, 6 draws and 8 defeats from 20 away games.
Head-to-Head
Fleetwood Town have won two of the last five head-to-heads, drawing two and losing once.
Key Players
- Fabrizio Cavegn
- 11 goals in 39 League Two appearances for Rovers.
- Can be found at the heart of most of their good moves and looks a strong contender to score at any point.
- Mark Helm
- 8 goals in 40 League Two matches for Fleetwood.
- Has scored three of Fleetwood’s last four goals and is their best bet to get on the scoreboard.
Betting Insights
- Bristol Rovers are priced at 2.2 and are the deserved favourites for this game.
- Both teams to score - No is available at 2.05 and looks the way to go given the likely tight nature of the match.
- Rovers have a mixed home record of 9 wins, 1 draw and 10 defeats from 20 this term.
- Fleetwood have failed to win their last two away matches (D1, L1).
Prediction
- This could be a tense, cagey game where one team keeps a clean sheet, so No BTTS (2.05) is the primary play.
- Fabrizio Cavegn is a strong candidate to score at any time.
- Mark Helm is Fleetwood’s top threat on the break and worth considering to score.
