Crewe vs Bristol Rovers Predictions

Rovers look vulnerable on the road

Crewe should be backed to beat Bristol Rovers at home in League Two on Saturday. The visitors have been poor on the road this season, with just one win in four away games.

Bristol Rovers are six places above Crewe in the table, but both teams have won more games than they have lost this season. Crewe, who sit ninth, are unbeaten in their eight games with two wins and six draws, while third-placed Bristol Rovers have five wins and three defeats. This season, 12 (55%) of the 22 games between teams in the top half of League Two have been home wins, for a profit of 6.42 points to a one-point level stake.

The hosts have been tough at home. Crewe are unbeaten in their four League Two games this season, having lost just one of their last eight on their own patch.

Crewe have been finding the net regularly, scoring in seven of their last eight League Two games. They come into this match on the back of five consecutive games with a goal.

Bristol Rovers are enduring a rough spell on the road, having lost three of their last four League Two away games. They come into this match on the back of two consecutive defeats away from home.

The visitors have struggled defensively of late. Bristol Rovers have conceded eight goals on their travels this season in League Two – an average of two goals per game from four away games.

A 2-0 home win looks a decent correct-score option. Five of Bristol Rovers’ last six League Two games and Crewe’s last four have had fewer than three goals, and the visitors have been beaten by at least two goals in two of their last three.
