Shrewsbury will look to bounce back from a 1-0 loss to Grimsby and given Bristol Rovers' difficulties on the road, we predict similar outcome (1-0). The Shrews have struggled for consistency this season, averaging 0.90 points per game overall and 1.25 PPG at home. They score 1.25 goals per home match while conceding 1.25, and have kept only 25% of home matches clean. BTTS has occurred in 50% of home games.
The Pirates continue to struggle, with just 0.20 PPG this season and no wins in their last six games. Away form has been similarly poor, conceding 2 goals per match on average and failing to score in 60% of games. H2H clashes show a competitive edge historically, with Shrewsbury winning 5 of the last 16 meetings, Rovers 6, and 31% ending in draws.
Given Shrewsbury's home and recent form advantage, Home Win should be considered, with additional value on Under 3.5 and Under 2.5 goals.
This League 2 match will be played on Thursday 1 January 2026 at 15:00.
