Bristol Rovers v Torquay

Preview:
Bristol Rovers boss Paul Trollope is sweating on the fitness of three players ahead of Torquay's visit to the Memorial Stadium.

Defender Craig Hinton (ankle), midfielder Craig Disley (knee) and joint-leading goalscorer Junior Agogo (abdomen) all sustained slight niggles in the midweek FA Cup replay defeat to Port Vale and Trollope will make late decisions on the trio.

Robbie Ryan and captain John Anderson returned to full training this week following knee problems and are both in contention.

Torquay left-back James Sharp will miss the West Country derby through suspension.

Sharp received his fifth caution of the season during last week's thrilling 3-3 home draw with Oxford.

The Gulls are also set to be without on-loan Wycombe striker Ian Stonebridge for a third successive match after he suffered a jarred ankle/shin during the opening stages of the 2-1 FA Cup win over Notts County.

Stonebridge's place in attack has gone to makeshift striker Kevin Hill, who has revelled in the role, scoring three times in the last two matches, including a last-minute leveller in the 3-3 home draw with Northampton.

United have come back from 3-1 down to draw 3-3 in their last two games.


Rovers have an average home record of 3-3-3-10-10 but their last 5 at home is 3-1-1-6-4 & theyve won the last 3 games. 9 of their 24 goals scored have come in the last 15 minutes.
Torquay as stated above have have found remarkable powers of recovery in recent weeks but that luck has to run out somewhere. Theyre unbeaten in 3 but 9 of their 39 conceded have come in the last 15 minutes.

Bristol Rovers look on a decent run for me at 4/5 Bet365
