 Tips and Prediction

With just one third-tier game lost since the beginning of October and a secure position in 15th place, Bristol Rovers have outperformed expectations in their first season back in League One.

Joey Barton cut a frustrated figure as Rovers lost to National League club Boreham Wood in the FA Cup two weeks ago and then split the points with Bolton Wanderers last weekend in league play, despite having a strong league season and making it to the round of 16 in the EFL Trophy.

Josh Coburn’s fifth goal for the Gas was the ideal response to the team losing to Luke Garrard’s team at home in the FA Cup. However, Dion Charles scored a dramatic late equalizer for the Trotters in a draw to deny Barton’s team the victory.

With a win, Bristol might climb as high as 10th in the standings, and they are only six points out of the playoff spots, so Barton will be anxious to see his team bounce back.

The visitors defeated Plymouth Argyle 2-0 in their most recent match to make it three straight victories in all competitions.

The Vale earned all three points thanks to a second-half double from James Wilson, snapping the Pilgrims’ winning streak of nine games.

With 29 points collected from 20 games, Darrell Clarke’s team is now in ninth place in the standings and is only two points out of the playoff spots.

If other results go their way, a win here could push them into the top six. Clarke will be confident that his team will win because the Vale have one of the better road records in the division, with 14 points from their first 10 road games this year.

Conclusion

We anticipate a close match because both teams are in strong physical condition. Port Vale, however, broke Plymouth’s undefeated home record the previous time they played, therefore we expect them to keep up their recent success and win three straight league games.
