Bristol Rovers (home)
- Rovers have won just three of their eight home games in the fourth tier, scoring six goals at the Memorial Stadium - an average of 0.75 per game.
- Darrell Clarke’s side have four defeats and just one win from their last five in all competitions, with two losses in a row heading into this Saturday’s clash, but their home form is an even split of one win and one loss in the past fortnight, which is an important factor for our Bristol Rovers vs Notts County betting tips.
- Rovers are a pragmatic outfit, with Clarke’s style of play prioritising a direct approach while organising his players in a way that limits their opponents’ access to the ball.
- The Pirates are solid in set pieces and can be dangerous on the counter, but they need a goal-scoring spark to win games.
Notts County (away)
- Notts County have an eleven-point advantage over Bristol Rovers in the League Two table after 17 games.
- Notts County have three wins, two draws and three defeats from their eight League Two away trips this season, conceding 10 goals in total, something to take into account for the Bristol Rovers vs Notts County betting tips.
- However, their form has been mixed, with two wins, a draw and two defeats from their last five.
- Martin Paterson’s team got up to speed again last time out, winning away to promotion-chasing Cheltenham Town, which should breed confidence ahead of Saturday’s trip to the Pirates.
- Paterson’s men are flexible and adaptable, with a data-driven approach underpinning their tactical approach, as overseen by the club’s technical board and analytics department.
Key Players
- Bristol Rovers
- Fabrizio Cavegn leads the way with four League Two goals in 16 appearances, and there’s no better time to call on the services of Kamil Conteh, who has scored two goals in his last five appearances - both of which have been Rovers’ only goals during that spell.
- Notts County
- Matthew Dennis is County’s main goal threat, with 7 goals in 16 League Two games this season, but Alassana Jatta has notched 3 times in the Magpies’ last 5 matches and could be the danger man against Rovers.
