This League One clash has two teams that are desperate for points at the wrong end of the table, as Crawley Town visit Bristol Rovers.
Our Three Predictions For Bristol Rovers v Crawley Town
- Prediction 1 – Both Teams To Score – Yes – 31/50
- Prediction 2 – Match To End In A Draw – 47/20
- Prediction 3 – Bristol Rovers To Win 101/100
First Prediction For Bristol Rovers v Crawley Town – Both Teams To Score – Yes – 31/50
Bristol Rovers have not had trouble scoring goals at home in recent games. In the last six home matches they have bagged 11 goals, including trebles in an impressive 3-2 win against Charlton Athletic and a comprehensive win in the FA Cup over Weston Super Mare, 3-1. Last weekend was a 1-1 draw with promotion hopefuls Lincoln City. Crawley have been somewhat goal shy on their travels, only scoring once in their last four league outings away from the south coast, but they did beat Maidenhead United away in the FA Cup 2-1, and with Rovers porous defence they will fancy their chances of grabbing a goal.
Second Prediction For Bristol Rovers v Crawley Town – Match To End In A Draw – 47/20
The odds look appealing here even though the two sides have only managed five draws between them so far this campaign. With valuable points on the line, a draw here does neither side any real good, but Crawley will value an away point and could dig deep if they get ahead early. Rovers though are scoring freely at home, and could find themselves in a position of having to hold on if they find themselves ahead. Look for both sides to preserve a point if the game is locked together late on.
Third Prediction For Bristol Rovers v Crawley Town – Bristol Rovers To Win 101/100
Some will say Bristol Rovers are in a false position given their recent form. A narrow loss to red hot Wycombe Wanderers, was followed by solid wins against Charlton and Shrewsbury Town, and a spirited draw against Lincoln. Crawley are on a slide that every now and then they seem to address, but the losses are adding up – 9 of their 15 League One games have ended in defeat, this could be a long trip back to the coastline.

Full Preview Of The Game: Last Results And Head To Head
The problem Crawley Town have is that after a bright start, winning their first four games across all competitions, following their unexpected promotion via the League Two playoffs, they have spiralled drastically. Only one win in the league since that opening, with another in the FA Cup, sees Rob Elliot’s men in the drop zone. To be fair that is where most experts had them at the start of the season. They will do well to come away from the Memorial Stadium with a point, let alone a win. Rovers have been inconsistent and that has led to their low league placing. For every win, they seem to draw and then lose. They will need to arrest that problem soon if they are to climb away from the relegation dogfight later in the season. Matt Taylor has a good solid squad though and this game could be the perfect platform to start a decent run before the Christmas slate of games.
