Bristol Rovers vs Hartlepool preview: Two very similar teams to meet
Bristol Rovers
With two wins, two draws, and two losses in the last six games in the league, Bristol Rovers have been rather inconsistent and tough to predict. Overall, the team has managed to collect twenty six points from twenty one games and they are sitting in the eighteenth spot in the standings at the moment, seven points away from the first team in the relegation zone.
Hartlepool
Although Hartlepool is two points ahead of their upcoming opponent in the standings, they have been in poor form recently. In the last six games in League Two, Hartlepool only won once, along with two draws and three losses. The team seems destined for a mid-table finish, but if they continue their poor run, they might even get into the relegation battle.
