Salford sit top of the table with 22 points and have been unbeaten in their last five league games, winning three and drawing two. Their away record shows two wins, one draw and two defeats, scoring an average of two goals per away match while conceding 1.6. Bristol Rovers have a decent home record – four wins, one loss – but have scored only two goals at home on average and have lost four of their last six matches overall. In the four recent meetings the games have produced an average of 1.75 goals and only 25 % have gone over 2.5. Combining Salford’s quality with the low‑scoring history suggests a good chance Salford will avoid defeat and the match is likely to finish under 2.5 goals.
