Bristol Rovers
WWWLWL
Bristol Rovers will be looking to improve on their last outing here following the 2-3 FA Cup defeat last time out to Sheffield United.
In that game, Bristol Rovers managed 48% possession and 9 shots at goal with 4 of them on target. For Bristol Rovers, the goalscorers were Alfie Kilgour (21') and Max Ehmer (62'). On the other side, Sheffield United had 22 attempts at goal with 8 on target. Oliver Burke (59') and Jayden Bogle (63') scored for Sheffield United.
It’s been all too rare in recent times where Bristol Rovers have kept a clean sheet. It will be a concern for them that The Pirates have seen their defence breached in 5 of their previous 6 matches, leaking 9 goals during that time.

The numbers tell their own story, and AFC Wimbledon have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 games, letting opponents get 12 goals overall.
