Match Preview

Bristol Rovers enjoyed a routine 2-0 home victory over Colchester United on Tuesday night as the Gas claimed the top spot in the League Two standings heading into gameweek five. Steve Evans' men have recorded three straight league wins since losing 3-2 to York City.

Tom Bradshaw converted from the spot six minutes into second-half stoppage time in midweek as Rotherham salvaged a point from their game against Tranmere. Alex Bruce's side are now unbeaten in three but face their toughest test yet on Saturday.
