Bristol Rovers vs Burton Free Betting Tips and Predictions

With little to separate these teams in terms of form, the Bristol vs Burton odds are very close and below we have tried to give you our best free betting tips.

Bristol Rovers to Win

Our first Bristol vs Burton prediction is for the hosts to grab their first win since early January. We base this prediction on the fact that Rovers tend to dominate at home in this fixture. They have never lost a home game against Burton – (W3 D2). Also back in September Bristol were comfortable 4-0 winners when the sides last met.

We also consider Burton’s dismal away record – (W3 D3 L9) – when we make this suggestion.

Coburn to Score Anytime

Our second Bristol vs Burton prediction focuses on individual performance. Josh Coburn is Bristol’s second-best top scorer with 9 league goals, but he is the team’s most effective forward when it comes to a goal per minute played.

Coburn scored in 9 of his first 15 league appearances for the club. He had gone quiet since and hasn’t scored in the last 6 rounds. That’s why we believe it will be very soon before he finds the back of the net again. We also consider the fact that Coburn was rested during the Tuesday night match, so now he almost certainly starts and is likely to play the full 90 minutes.

BTTS – No

Only 1 of the last 9 Bristol – Burton clashes saw both teams scoring. Added to that only 1 of Bristol’s last 7 league games had a BTTS, and only 1 of Burton’s last 6 league games had it. All this makes our third Bristol vs Burton prediction somewhat logical as far as we’re concerned.

Bristol Rovers vs Burton Lineups and Other News

Bristol Rovers

Bristol enter this match on the back of earning a single point from their last 5 league games. Main reason for the struggles is the fact that only 1 goal was scored in those 5 games.

Not many changes to the lineup are likely with Rovers seriously restricted in terms of numbers. Coburn should start up front instead of the injured on Tuesday Anderson. Captain Coutts also could be back after being ill recently. Rovers remain without the suspended Finlay and Loft. Also, they are still missing a handful of injured players. Among them key centre-back Gibson, main left-back Anderton and main anchor-man Rossiter.

Burton Albion

The Brewers pulled away from the relegation zone after being able to record 3 wins in the last 4 rounds. The displays are not hugely impressive though and 2 of those 3 wins were very fortunate ones.

After a very busy January using on average 6-7 winter signings in their recent starting lineups. This trend is likely to continue now with winger Kirk expected to start for the first time. Plenty of injury problems with 7 players currently listed as sidelined or doubtful. The midfield line is badly crippled as all of Terry Taylor, Helm and Gilligan are ruled out. The options in attack are also limited as Smith and Kamwa are deemed doubtful.
