      Burton Albion vs Bristol Rovers Predictions

      • Burton sit bottom of the table after a 3-0 thrashing last weekend
      • Bristol Rovers have only lost one of their last nine competitive games
      • The Brewers finished last season with a run of one win in eight

      Burton already desperate for points

      We may only be one game into the season, but things are already looking a bit worrying for Burton, who suffered a 3-0 thrashing at the hands of Wycombe last weekend and now sit bottom of the table.

      The Brewers lost five of their six pre-season friendlies, including a 2-1 defeat to Brackley Town, which has set alarm bells ringing at the Pirelli Stadium.

      That comes after Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink’s side only won one of their final eight matches last year, failing to score in six of them.

      Rovers hoping to carry momentum forward

      Bristol Rovers’ return to League One ended in defeat last weekend as they were beaten 2-1 by fellow promotion winners Forest Green Rovers.

      Joey Barton’s side though still have plenty of momentum following their astounding escape from the fourth tier in May, sealed with a 7-0 win over Scunthorpe on the final day of the campaign.

      The loss seven days ago was a first in competitive matches for nine outings, while they also lost just one their final nine away fixtures in 2021/22.

      I think Bristol Rovers could win this game, but select Bristol Rovers double chance for insurance, with 2-1 to the visitors my correct score prediction.
