Forest Green Rovers will be looking to avoid a recurrence of their recent 1-0 League One setback at the hands of MK Dons. MK Dons’ goal came from Daniel Harvie (59′). Forest Green Rovers not conceding has been all too infrequent in recent seasons. In fact, Forest Green Rovers have been scored against in 5 of their last 6 games, allowing 8 goals in the process.

Burton Albion will enter the game on the back of a 3-0 League One victory against Lincoln City in their most recent outing. Sam Hughes (5′), Jonny Smith (14′), and Victor Adeboyejo (27′) scored for Burton Albion.
