Cheltenham T. prepare to entertain Bristol Rovers at Whaddon Road on Tuesday evening, needing to improve on a poor record between the sides. The visitors have won 2 of the 5 previous games, with the Robins winning just 1.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Whaddon Road was less than a year ago, in March 2008, the Robins carving out a narrow 1-0 victory in a League One match.

Recent respective form guides
Cheltenham Town's home form is poor, winning just 2 of the last six, and losing the other 4. While Robins have scored 8, a worringly large 12 have been leaked at the other end.
The away form of Bristol Rvs. is pretty dire, managing a paltry 2 draws from the last six matches. While the Pirates have hit 8 goals, 15 have hit the back of the wrong net.
Cheltenham T. find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 6 games have yielded only 3 points. Bristol Rvs. are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 5 points from 6 matches.

FootyMad's prediction ...
Its been a distinctly poor show from Cheltenham T. at home in recent games, and, though I cannot see a run starting here, I do think the Robins will at least gain a draw. Score draw
