Bristol Rovers Preview – Rovers to lose on home turf?

Ben Garner’s Bristol Rovers finished in 14th place in League One last term. It was a topsy-turvy campaign for Rovers, who picked up a respectable 12 wins from 35 matches. However, they were beaten 14 times, eventually finishing 15 points away from the play-off positions.

Bristol Rovers started this season with a hard-fought draw with Sunderland at the Stadium of Light. Luke Leahy’s third-minute penalty put Garner’s men in front, but the Black Cats rallied and found an equaliser ten minutes from time. Rovers held on in the end for a decent point.

Our betting prediction:
Ipswich to win & both teams to score
9/2

(odds taken 0810 GMT, Friday 18 September)

 
Bristol Rovers are one of several League One clubs with EFL Championship aspirations. However, a mid-table finish seems a likely outcome for the Bristol club.

Ipswich Town Preview – Town to leave Bristol with all three points?

Ipswich Town were one of the title favourites before a ball was kicked last season. Everything was going to plan as the Tractor Boys made a stunning start. However, they had a woeful second half to their campaign, ending up in 11th spot. Overall, Town won 14, drew ten and lost 12 of 36 league fixtures.

Paul Lambert’s side lost seven of their last nine League One games last term, including each of the last four. However, Ipswich kicked off this league season with a win over Wigan Athletic at Portman Road. Ed Bishop and Gwion Edwards were on target in the comfortable 2-0 home victory.
