Team News

Bristol Rovers
Northampton
  • Promise Omochere is expected to lead the line on his Bristol Rovers debut.
  • Tom Eaves is likely to start down the middle on his Northampton debut.

Prediction

  • Bristol Rovers will be looking for a much-improved campaign after their 2023-2024 season never quite clicked into gear, culminating in a 15th-place finish.
  • Boss Matt Taylor has strengthened the squad with the exciting additions of Ruel Sotiriou and Isaac Hutchinson, but they must tighten up at the back after conceding a whopping 68 goals last term.
  • Northampton appear to be in for a tough season after losing some of their key players in Sam Sherring, Louis Appere and Shaun McWilliams.
  • The Cobblers managed to finish a respectable 14th last term and striker Tom Eaves is proven at League One level and could prove crucial to their survival hopes.
