Pre-Match Chat: Bristol Rovers v Vale

Posted on: Tue 25 Oct 2011

Tonight we make the trip to the West Country to play Bristol Rovers at their Memorial Ground Stadium.

We will be looking to get back on track after losing to Morecambe on Saturday, and face a team that has won one and lost three of its last four fixtures.

The win was a good one though, 5-2 against promotion favourites Rotherham United. At home the Pirates have won three, drawn one and lost three so far, and lie 14th in the table.

Their leading scorer is the experienced Matt Harrold, who has six to his name so far. Goalkeeper Scott Bevan and Lee Brown are their only ever presents with all 17 appearances this season.

We haven't played Rovers too often of late, the only league meetings between the two sides in the last eleven years taking place in the 2007/08 season.

At home we drew 1-1 and then lost 3-2 away after being in front twice, a game in which Chris Herd was sent off. We did win on each of our previous three visits to Rovers though.
