Our prediction for this League 1 match:
Wycombe Wanderers will look to escape the danger zone when they take on Bristol Rovers in the League One round 26. The Chairboys do not seem to be at their sharpest, with the team failing to win the previous twelve league matches. Even though there are no fresh injury worries in the home team, we are not tempted to put our money on Matt Bloomfield’s troops as they obviously struggle in front of goal.
The Pirates, on the other hand, recorded three wins in the last four league matches. Bristol Rovers aim to keep their playoffs hopes alive and we predict that they will showcase their worth on the field. Taking everything into account, Bristol Rovers will not have a better chance than this to put an end to their four-game winless run in meetings with Wycombe. Experienced forward Chris Martin should be recalled to Charlton’s starting XI after scoring a brace in the last league match.
Highlighted Team (Wycombe):
Founded back in 1887, Wycombe Wanderers are one of the oldest clubs in the League One. The Chairboys are well known for their sky blue and dark blue shirts, but the colour of their away kit is orange combined with gun-metal gray.
Wycombe Wanderers host their rivals at Adams Park, a small stadium in Sands Industrial Estate which can hold up to 10,137 people. Milton Keynes Dons are seen as the club’s main rivals, with the two teams facing each other in the Buckinghamshire derby. Wycombe Wanderers made it to the FA Cup semis in the 2000/2001, with the team repeating the success in the League Cup six seasons later.
It has to be noted that the Chairboys have two FA Trophy titles (1991, 1993). Legendary midfielder Gareth Ainsworth is considered one of the club’s most famous players. Ainsworth scored 16 goals in 112 league appearances for Wycombe Rovers.
