Goal Statistics

Accrington Stanley's fans will be hoping for goals on Saturday afternoon, not least because Bristol Rovers have conceded in each of their last 9 League Two games. A PG of 1.6 for J. Doolan's side suggests that run should continue.

Goals have been a problem for Bristol Rovers of late. It has been 5 League Two matches since they last scored more than 1, and a PG of 1.1 suggests they'll struggle to end that run on Saturday afternoon against Accrington Stanley.
