Prediction: 1-1
Bristol Rovers
Sparkles will be flying when Crewe Alexandra and Bristol Rovers face each other at Alexandra Stadium in round 2 of the FA Cup. Following three consecutive league wins, the Railwaymen shared the spoils with Sutton in midweek to stay in the playoffs berth. Crewe are enjoying a very successful first half of the season, but they need to keep on making progress if they are to secure the League One promotion. There are no fresh injury worries in the home team ahead of Saturday’s encounter.
The Pirates, on the other hand, head into the FA Cup clash following a 1-1 draw with Leyton Orient. Bristol Rovers are eager to put an end to their four-game losing run in meetings with Crewe, but beating the in-form League Two side at Alexandra Stadium is easier said than accomplished. Taking everything into account, we believe that there is a big value in betting on draw. Experienced Northern Ireland forward John Marquis is widely expected to return to Bristol Rovers’ starting XI.
Highlighted Team (Bristol Rovers):
Established back on August 1, 1883, Bristol Rovers are one of the oldest clubs in the League One. Bristol Rovers were formed after a meeting at the Eastville Restaurant under the name of Black Arabs after the Arabs rugby team.
This name, though, lasted no more than one season as the club was renamed Eastville Rovers in 1884. Five years later the club’s name was officially changes to Bristol Rovers. Nicknamed the Pirates, Bristol Rovers welcome their opponents at Memorial Stadium Horfield, the venue with the capacity of 12,296. Bristol Rovers are well known for their blue and white home kit, but they are dressed in yellow when playing on the travels.
Ricky Lambert, who used to play for the likes of Southampton and Liverpool in the Premier League, is regarded as one of the club’s most notable footballers. It has to be noted that Lambert scored 51 goals in 128 appearances for the Pirates in the league.
