Cambridge vs Bristol Rovers prediction for League One

In this article, you’ll familiarize yourself with our top-notch Cambridge vs Bristol Rovers predictions for the game on the 7th of January.

Aaron Collins to score

The 25-year-old Welsh player has been sensational this season. He pulled off a remarkable piece of goalscoring by bagging 13 in the 2022/23 campaign and we can’t wait to see how long he can keep the fire going.

No one can say that Aaron Collins is a one-trick pony as he’s also the top creator on the team with 11 assists since the start of the season. With playmaker-in-chief Aaron Collins in his starting 11, Joey Barton can rest easy knowing his team will score at least once.

First half – Over 1.5 goals

As we stated above, Aaron Collins’ form is the best in the league and he’ll undoubtedly be in the starting XI for this match. And his sheer presence on the pitch is a recipe for goals. Furthermore, seven of the last 10 games between Cambridge and Bristol Rovers ended with over 2.5 goals.

Bristol Rovers to win

The most impressive result we’ve seen was a high-flying display by the two teams on the 8th of August, 2017, when the referee’s final whistle was after a 4:1 victory for Bristol Rovers. Cambridge’s last victory against the Pirates was recorded almost 20 years ago – on the 9th of October, 2004. With 19 years passing by without Cambridge securing the three points against Bristol Rovers, it’s only logical that we expect the game on Saturday to end with a Bristol Rovers win.

Cambridge vs Bristol Rovers: match preview and news

Make sure you thoroughly read our Cambridge vs Bristol Rovers match preview so that you can make a decent League One bet.

Cambridge

The Amber Army isn’t exactly going strong in the English League One. With seven victories, three draws, and 14 losses, it’s fair to say that Cambridge are experiencing a lackluster performance this season. The players will certainly need to step it up a notch if they want to remain a League One side next season as well.

Bristol Rovers

The Pirates will have to be on top of their game for the rest of the season if they want to win the promotion. After all, they are in 11th place trailing by seven points. Coach Joey Barton’s boys have nine victories, seven draws, and nine losses this season – not exactly the sort of display that grants you access to the Championship.
