Crystal Palace U21 to open the lead

Bristol Rovers vs Crystal Palace U21 EFL Trophy Fixture Preview

Bristol Rovers

A 1-1 draw in regular time wasn’t enough to save Bristol Rovers from losing their first game. They were thrashed 4-3 in penalties. However, the hosts had a modest performance in that game against Plymouth as they had 47% ball possession, recorded 4 shots on target, one shot less than Plymouth. Moreover, Bristol won 8 corners against 12 for Plymouth. If they can employ the same attacking zeal in this second cup fixture, the hosts are likely to score.

Crystal Palace U21
