Bristol Rovers predicted team vs Bolton Wanderers: Illness set to rob Joey Barton of key players

Friday night under the lights will make for a unique experience for Bristol Rovers this evening, as 780 Gasheads make the 360-mile round trip at the end of a working week to the University of Bolton Stadium, expecting a marked improvement on the performance dished up at the Mem last Sunday.

As noted by the manager earlier this week in reflecting on the FA Cup defeat to Boreham Wood, if Rovers were to drop a duff performance in what has been a fine run of form and results throughout October and November, at least it came in one of the cup competitions and not the league.

The Gas have lost just one of their last nine matches in League One and, had last weekend not happened, or at least played out a little differently, they’d be approaching this trip full of confidence and belief.
