Forest Green Rovers
WLLLWL
After being beaten in their last game against MK Dons in League Two action, Forest Green Rovers and their travelling supporters will be hoping that they can get a better result in this one.
Max Dean (40') and Alex Gilbey (51') scored for MK Dons.
A tendency of at least one team not scoring a goal in games involving Forest Green Rovers has become evident of late. Examining their last six meetings shows that itโs occurred 6 times. During these clashes, opposing sides have managed a goal total of 6 and Forest Green Rovers have scored 7. That pattern isnโt assured to be carried forward into this game, however.
Their previous form shows that Forest Green Rovers:
- are winless against Mansfield Town in away games against them for the last 2 matches in the league.
- haven't been beaten by Mansfield Town when having played them away from home in the previous 3 league games.
- havenโt won away from home in the past 9 league matches. A poor run.
