Exeter City vs Bristol Rovers Predictions
Exeter can prey on Rovers’ issues
Exeter are worth backing to beat Bristol Rovers at St James Park on Thursday. The visitors have lost their last two League One away games and could be heading for more misery on the road having recently sacked boss Matt Taylor, who previously managed Exeter.
Gary Caldwell’s hosts are 13th in League One, six places and five points above 19th-placed Bristol Rovers, but both teams have won fewer games than they’ve lost this season.
However, backing Exeter in matches against fellow bottom-half opponents would have shown a profit of 9.30 points to a one-point stake this season and they are good when it comes to beating the lesser lights in the division. They proved that with a 2-1 win at Burton Albion on Saturday.
Bristol Rovers lost 2-0 to Birmingham two weeks ago in their last League One away game, and they have now lost their last two on the road having also lost 3-0 at Leyton Orient.
A 3-1 home win for Exeter is an appealing correct-score option. Three of Exeter’s eight wins this season have been by a two-goal margin and Bristol Rovers have lost four games by at least two goals in League One this season.
